>March Issue Highlights
>If you have college-bound hams in your family, 
>you will want to pay special attention to the 
>March WRO issue. It details the Foundation for 
>Amateur Radio (FAR) scholarships that are 
>available for 2010. Some of the scholarships 
>have residency requirements or “course of study” 
>requirements, but most of them are very 
>liberal.  The scholarships can be as high as 
>$5,000, and I don't need to remind you how 
>expensive it can be to put kids through college. 
>It doesn't cost anything to apply, so I 
>recommend giving it a shot. The application 
>deadline is in March, so don't put it off.
>
>Of course, there are your regular favorites, 
>including Aerials by Krusty Ole Kurt, Rules and 
>Regs, Trail-Friendly Radio, EmComm, Propagation, YLs and more.
>
>This is my last edition of WRO as editor. I 
>enjoyed being a part of your ham life, both as a 
>columnist and an editor. We've become like a 
>family and I am going to miss that. I'll be at 
>Hamvention ® in May, so stop by the FISTS booth 
>and say hello! My direct email is nancy at tir.com 
>if you'd like to drop me a note.
>
>If you have comments about WRO, please don't hit 
>the reply button for this email. This is sent by 
>an automated service and your email probably 
>won't be read. Send your comments to the new 
>editor, Richard Fisher, KI6SN at  <worldradioonline at gmail.com>.

>Former WorldRadio Online Editor
>
>P.S. For those who don't know ­ ‘33’ is like 
>‘73’, but only used between women hams. Do a 
>search on “33 Clara YLRL” and you'll find a poem explaining it.
