Episode 075 - Paul Wade - W1GHZ
 | What is a DX contact on 10 Ghz? Paul Wade, W1GHZ, tells his ham radio story, about his operations in the amateur radio frequencies above 1 Ghz, and how these contacts are made. Paul is a regular contributor on amateur radio microwave subjects to both QST and QEX magazines. He joins Eric, 4Z1UG, in this week’s QSO Today. |
