And by that, I mean radio operators, not personalities...

Although, the two are not mutually-exclusive.

Not sure if you're aware of Amateur Radio Newsline or not. It's a weekly
ham radio newscast that's been produced since the mid-70's and, with a
short absence immediately following the death last year of founder Bill
Pasternak, hasn't missed a week.

Earlier this year I became one of the field correspondents and rotating
anchors, which is kinda weird since I used to listen back in 1977 on the
local club repeater, and now, almost every week, I download the podcast or
listen to it on a friend's repeater and hear my own voice coming back at
me....

I'm just putting this out here to get the word out. After Bill's passing,
the staff took a little time to regroup, decided it needed to keep going,
and earlier this year, I decided to volunteer my services and was invited
to join. We all are passionate about not only carrying it forward, but also
growing the network and keeping the report fresh, informative, interesting
and relevant.

If you want to listen to the podcast version, the website is
www.arnewsline.org. If you use a podcast app on your phone or tablet, you
can subscribe that way. Or, if you're involved with a local club that has a
repeater, please have them contact us about carrying it on the repeater as
a service to their users. It's free. We're just about to release number
2019, which marks the beginning of our 40th year of service. If you listen
to #2018, I'm the anchor. I'm pretty proud to be part of this team.

73.
