I'd bet that a lot of folks who hang out here know Jim George, N3BB.
I've just finished reading his novel, and it's a real page-turner. It's
the story of a guy sort of like a lot of us techie types growing up in a
town in West Virginia in the 50s. The protagonist discovers ham radio,
gets involved in the pop music scene, high school sports, girls, the
beginnings of school integration the civil rights movement, and his
struggles with issues with one of his parents. The story begins as he
prepares to attend a high school reunion, then flashes back to his high
school days where much of the story is told.
I really enjoyed it, and found that it touched me in many ways.
Strongly recommended.
