The power of ham radio

The Sun Journal reports on the amateur radio ISS school contact held at the Bates College Museum of Art, Lewiston, Maine.

They say that while waiting for the ISS contact, Dave Taylor W8AAS, technical adviser for the American Radio Relay League, told Lewiston-Auburn eighth-graders that ham radio can be more than a fun hobby, it can be a way to make international friends, fight terrorism and even boost a job resume.

The report continued - Tragedies such as the April 15 Boston Marathon bombing can be countered with more one-on-one international friendships through ham radio, he said. "You are the folks who can change the world," he said. How? "By making friends, talking with people in different lands, finding out about their culture. That puts us in a position we can better understand the differences."
