Show Notes (contains affiliate links): Show Notes (contains affiliate links): How Not To Be An Appliance Operator 
 
On this week's episode of Ham Radio Crash Course, a podcast roughly
based on amateur radio but mostly made up of responding to emails from
listeners, hosted by Josh Nass - KI6NAZ and his reluctant wife, Leah -
KN6NWZ, we talk about checking on your antenna in the winter, the Raptor Software Leak, the Book of Eli, how not to be an appliance operator and the ARRL proposed amendments (in the email correspondent’s tower.) 
 
Ham Radio Minute: Go check your antennas.
