Episode 227 - Riki Klein - K7NJ / 4X4NJ
Riki Kline, K7NJ, has a long and
interesting ham radio career, from humble beginnings in Las Vegas, Nevada,
as a teenage ham, to his current QTH on over 40 rural acres in Utah. Riki
also lives in Israel, part time, in the village of Naaleh, overlooking
Israels coastal plain and the Ben Gurion, Airport. K7NJ shares his
perspective as an amateur radio operator who frequently works from either
side of the World, likes to chase DX and operate contests in this QSO Today.
