    Gerald Youngblood, K5SDR - "give me an I and Q, and I can do anything".

    Excited most by: Software Defined Radio. Meeting people with common
    interests online.

    Greatest challenge facing amateur radio now: we need to re-brand amateur radio. Why do we call it "amateur radio"?

    Advice to new or returning hams: find people with shared interests no
    matter where and who they are. Be open to new ideas, explore and test
    them. The RSS Feed for all audio content from QSO today is available from
