test, but the challenges of becoming a good HF operator are just beginning!

Learning new modes, equipment, and operating procedures can seem
overwhelming. Greg Brown, KTØK, will present a basic introduction to
setting up your first station, the proper adjustment and use of HF equipment,
and operating procedures to make your transition more enjoyable. There will
