HRN 530: Let's Talk About the Weather🌧(Channel)📺

The show starts at about 6:42

On the heels of Hurricane Beryl, Bob Inderbitzen NQ1R, ARRL Director of Marketing and Innovation was interviewed by The Weather Channel about ham radio. It was a great shot in national media, which means that East Coast Host Gary K4AAQ needed to take it apart to see how it could have been better, while West Coast Host David W0DHG pulled Gary back to reality.

Well, back in his younger days, Gary was no novice in the PR world, and he’s got some legacy video to prove it:
