    Episode 256 - Steven Bible - N7HPR
    Steven Bible, N7HPR, made a career in the US
    Navy, spending almost two years under water on a Trident submarine. Steve
    is a long time contributor to TAPR, the Tucson Amateur Packet Radio Corporation, perhaps amateur radio's "Bell Labs". Steve and I discuss his ham radio story, the developments of TAPR, and TAPRs contributions to advancing the state of the art in amateur radio.

    Greatest challenge facing amateur radio now: attitudes, the ability to get along with one another, and have fun.

    Most excited by: Sharing of ideas and doing clever things.

    Advice to new or returning hams: Find what you enjoy, and keep doing it.

    Thought exercise:
    Question 1: At what age did you learn about or become a ham radio operator? Question 2: What was it at your age that interested you about amateur radio? Question 3: What would ham radio have to be to interest a 12 to 14 year old today. The RSS Feed for all audio content from QSO today is available from here.
