Episode 396 - Jordan Makower - WA2BRV
|
Jordan Makower, WA2BRV, was first licensed as an adult and young teacher, “elmered” by a student whose high school radio club needed a faculty trustee. Jordan spent his career influencing kids in the sciences as well as supporting their amateur radio interests. Now retired, Jordan is a frequent contributor to the K9YA Telegraph magazine, telling his own ham radio stories. WA2BRV is my QSO Today.
