Episode 372 - Andy Mitchell - VA3CW
Andy Mitchell, VA3CW, as an eleven year old Boy
Scout, participated with his small troop in Boy Scout Jamboree on the Air,
in 1974. This exposure changed the course of Andys life, profession, and
interests. Getting on the air and working DX are the simple ham radio
pastimes that contribute to his free time enjoyment. VA3CW is my QSO Today.
