Episode 099 - Jeff Murray - K1NSS
Jeff Murray, K1NSS is a cartoonist and story teller who specializes in being a keen observer of ham radio and ham radio operators. He uses his website, dashtoons.com, to share his cartoons and stories with all of us. Cartoonists, especially political and social cartoonists, use their medium to get us to lighten up a bit, look in the mirror, and put everything into perspective. Jeff does the same with this amateur radio cartoons, and his main character, Dash!, The Dog-Faced Ham. K1NSS is my guest on this QSO Today.
