Along with being avid Rt 66 roadies, my hubby Harry and I are ham radio operators. Here's news of a very special Route 66 amateur radio event that happens each September.
If you're a ham, or know a neighbor, family member, friend or anyone who is a ham, please join in the fun and fellowship of this "on the air" Route 66 adventure!
Here's a quick look at the event: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Route_66_on_the_Air
The Citrus Belt Radio Club of San Bernardino CA is one of big event sponsors.
They usually have a lot of event info. at their home page at http://www.qsl.net/w6jbt/
During this event, ham radio operators in many of the Route 66 states are on the air on shortwave (HF, or high frequency) radio frequencies, and happy to talk and visit with other radio operators, vistors and the public at their events, "F2F" or on the radio.
I'll post more details as I get them.
Safe travels, Valli N8QVT
