65 Great Things About Ham Radio

[Movieman990]

I ran across this and didn't find it anywhere here at RR so thought I would post the link:

The text just below is from the introductory paragraphs of the article and list from CQ magazine.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Five years ago, on CQ's 60th anniversary, we ran a feature throughout the year titled "60 Great Things About Ham Radio," in which we listed five "great things" each month. The series was quite popular and we have continued to receive requests to reprint it. So now, in honor of our 65th anniversary, we're repeating the list—with a few updates as well as five more "Great Things About Ham Radio."

CQ Magazine's list covers what they believe to be "65 great things about ham radio".

I can top that.

Here's a list of 100 things to do in amateur radio. OK, maybe not all of them are "great".

Pretty good.. I actually DO the first four things on the list... (and have a 10-10 number) For number five, I was on 160 for a few years, but could never get my dipole working well, (just wasn't high enough) so I took it down....
