[CQ-Contest] RE: Way to go, Ward!!!!

[Nathan, Kevin]

I'll heartily second that.  There was a book that was similar that I read in
Braille when I was about 13 that got me on my way and which was quite old
called the Boys' Book of Ham Radio and even as old as it was, it was helpful
so way to go Ward.

Take care all and very 73.

NEWS & PRESS RELEASES

"Ham Radio for Dummies" by N0AX will be available from general and
ham radio booksellers by 12 April. It's a real, yellow-and-black "for
Dummies" book - this is not a late April Fool's article!  Aimed at
the beginning and prospective ham, it contains 384 pages of material,
a tear-out cheat sheet, tons of Web links and references, tables,
photos (there's even one of Riley Hollingsworth's station), and
graphics. My goal was to write a book that "I wish I'd had when I was
just getting started."  Your assignment? Get one to a friend or
neighbor that is thinking about joining us in our splendid hobby. The
well-known Dummies cover and presentation should make them feel right
at home. Check it out at your favorite bookseller or at
