While this information is in the Ham Radio Information Door on
The Thunderbolt BBS, I've decided to create monthly posts (days
1-28) on various items of the amateur radio hobby. These posts will
recycle each month, as I don't consider messages over 30 days old to
still be "timely".

Much of the data applies to amateur radio operators in the U.S.
and its territories. If you live elsewhere, please check with your
countries amateur radio organization or communications agency for
more details. For the ham radio humor (items 15A through 15Q ), much
of the info is "tongue in cheek"...and some, you may not want to use
on the air.

The topics will include:

1) Interested In Ham Radio??
2) Some Famous Hams
3) W1AW Bulletin Information
4) Expired Licenses During A Government Shutdown
5) Amateur Radio License Question Pools
6) Vanity Callsigns
7) Ham Radio Classes And Exams (Comprehensive Bulletin)
8) 10 Commandments For Technicians
9) Patience During The Nets
10) Third Party Traffic
11) International Operations
12) Reciprocal Operating Agreements
13) APRS Information
14) ARRL RadioGrams and Formal Written Traffic
15) Ham Radio Humor, including:
A) Ham Radio Awards
B) QRN In The Grass
C) In Big Trouble
D) Missing Q Signals
E) New Contsting Rig
F) No New Rigs Allowed
G) The Poor Ham
H) The Ham Radio Pager
I) The Ham Snake
J) Ham Spray
K) Having A Ham As A Pet
L) No Static In The Shack
M) Radio Rules
N) Sign For The Shack
O) The Wishing Well
P) DX Movies
Q) The Triple Play
16) U.S. Amateur Radio Band Plans
17) Contesting Tips, and Little Pistols Versus Big Guns
18) Courtesy, and Good Amateur Practice
19) Morse Code Got The Job, and CW Beats SMS
20) D-Star and D-Rats
21) Echolink And CQ100
22) Hamfests
23) Selected Ham Radio Websites
24) Several Ham Radio Poems written by WX4QZ
