This month I’m continuing with Craig Rose’s mini-report on HF aero communications. Over the coming months these reports by Craig and other assistant editors will become a regular part of the column along with articles and features by guest writers. This brings us back to the main purpose of this column, which is to be a place where you share your logs, information, and ideas. Since the events of 9/11, many people have been diverting their attention away from hobbies as worries and concerns about the economy, world events, and family have been taking precedence. This trend has not only affected those interested in monitoring utility radio stations, but everyone with outside interests and pastimes it seems. At this point, though, we now have a clearer idea of the issues confronting the world and what our roles will be in upcoming events. While there is no excuse to let down the preparedness that has been put into place over the past year, it is neither healthy nor desirable to remain in a continuous state of anxiety over the future. So as we face a new year, now is a good time to start re-building what we enjoy and value in our lives. In that regard I put a challenge out to each of you to start contributing again—after all, it is your column. Let’s start seeing some new names in the logs next year, as well as more letters and comments. |
