Our writings over the years…

These business and radio writings, below, are in addition to the columns and articles written for the Newark News Radio Club (back to 1956) and the North American Shortwave Association shortwave listening clubs.

Our foray into microcomputers began in 1979 with a loaded Apple II and a 300 bps Hayes modem. Our shortwave radio-oriented Pinelands RBBS telephone bulletin board system, using an early Chinese IBM PC clone, went online in the early 1980s, and survived a bit more than a year after our move onto the web in 1991.

Radio

The short story: I began shortwave listening and learned the code in 1952, but I didn't get around to getting a Novice license until the summer of 1975. Licensed as WN2AYA, then WB2AYA, and getting the Amateur Extra license in January 1977 enabled me to select a 1x2 call. (The X suffixes had just been released from the experimental service.) W2XQ has a license history dating back to 1919.

Over the years we had numerous radios on the table pdf since 1952. Have a read.

Shortwave was and remains as the sole mechanism to deliver programming that cannot be controlled by a gateway. Whereas satellites can be jammed and the Internet can be turned off, only solar flares limit the propagation of radio waves.
