Episode 084 - Peter Parker - VK3YE
The local city dump was the source of parts for
Peter Parker, VK3YE's first ham radio projects. This humble beginning made
Peter one of the most prolific contributors of videos and articles on the
art of amateur radio. Peter builds his own gear, operates QRP from the
local beach, and gives valuable advice on how to be a successful operator.
VK3YE is 4Z1UG's guest on QSO Today.
