[NJARC] WWII Amateur Radio Blackout

[radiomf at comcast.net]

I don't have any info about WWII but here is an interesting bit from WWI.
On my desk I have framed the cover from the June 1919 QST magazine. It is a Letter from Hiram Percy Maxim. I will quote the first paragraph...

Greetings Amateurs!

The American Radio Relay League extends its heartiest greetings to the wireless amateurs of the country on the happy occasion of the lifting of Federal restrictions on amateur recieving. We have been assured by the Navy Department that the restrictions on amateur transmitting will also be lifted as soon as the President of the United States announces that a state of pease exists.
