Some of them work for the Madisonville Independent

When I try to accesswww.arrl.org, I get a message

A school system that blocks anything associated
with amateur radio is in very sad shape.

Would you call the military "entertainment?"

Connect the dots.

Hmmm...I just wrote four separate sentences. :-)

Are they related to one another? :-)
