Episode 099 - Jeff Murray - K1NSS Jeff Murray, K1NSS is a cartoonist and
story teller who specializes in being a keen observer of ham radio and ham
radio operators. He uses his website, dashtoons.com, to share his cartoons
and stories with all of us. Cartoonists, especially political and social
cartoonists, use their medium to get us to lighten up a bit, look in the
mirror, and put everything into perspective. Jeff does the same with this
amateur radio cartoons, and his main character, Dash, the dog faced ham.
K1NSS is my guest on this QSO Today. Show
