Thanks for hosting Joe W1JR on QSO Today. Great to hear his stories and updates.

When I hear "W1JR" - I think of ham radio magazine and the other staff members like Craig Clark N1ACH, Joe Schroeder W9JUV, and Bill Orr W6SAI and "Rip" WA2LQQ.

Thank you Joe for all those articles on antennas, microwave technology and other things - much was over my head back then, but as I grew older, I began to understand more.

BTW, I think the electrical devices that blow from RF are likely ground fault interrupters - GFCI.
