[QCWA] Intro to Ham radio

[Jon Pearl - W4ABC]

The very "definitive" website, devoted to the Space Patrol and Tom Corbett, 
Space Cadet can be found below...

"What started as a fond memory developed into a 30+ year research hobby.  As 
I found other fans of Tom, Space Patrol, Rocky Jones and the space heroes of 
the early 1950's, a common statement of "I thought I was the only one 
interested in Tom Corbett and the 1950's Space Heroes!!! was repeated many 
times."

It would seem that others had the same idea as your inspirational teacher!


Fraternally,

> time I got out of high school in 1956  I  was K6 ICM.    He was a very 
> fine man.   He went   SK   in 1958.  I still think of him often.  If You
