Hey NFARL!
If you missed Don’s fantastic presentation on April 15th — or if you just want to relive it — great news: the full presentation is now available on YouTube!
Don’s story into the world of Amateur Radio was nothing short of inspiring. From earning his Technician license in February 2024 to achieving Extra Class just six months later, his rapid rise in the hobby had the entire room buzzing. His enthusiasm, curiosity, and hands-on approach reminded many of us why we fell in love with ham radio in the first place.
In the presentation, Don walks us through how he got started, the thrill of chasing DX, his love for Parks on the Air (POTA), and even his deep dive into vintage gear with a full Heathkit station rebuild. Whether you're new to the hobby or have been around for a while, there's something in his story that'll resonate.

Big thanks again to Don for sharing his journey — and to everyone who came out to support him. Let’s keep encouraging each other, sharing stories, and getting on the air!
