A look at more new and innovative AR products from this year’s Hamfest, including a potted history of the ever-popular and much revered range of transceivers and kits from Electraft with co-founder Eric Swartz WA6HHQ.
In this modern era of connectivity, we take the ever-present Internet for granted; it’s always there and continues to deliver our data from A to B without issue.

The products advertised in this episode by ML&S include the SUNSDR2 DX portable transceiver. For more details see: http://www.hamradio.co.uk
