NI9Y Amateur Radio Station, Mishawaka, IN. USA Below left is my basement bomb shelter station. This station is Y2K compliant. Andrew, Whitney, Courtney, and Katie, the family doggy. At age six I became interested in the mysteries of radio. My father George, was also 15 when he became a ham operator. He let his ham license expire during the 1939 depression. He later became KA9SOA. Dad was always tinkering with radio sets. I recalled many occasions when dad would repair a Hallicrafters S19R. receiver which we used for short wave listening. I asked dad if it was possible to see the person talking thru the radio speaker.Then we built a single tube regenerative receiver. Dad told me he had a radio license when he was 15 years old on a farm in North Judson, Indiana. I remember visiting the farm and finding old radio parts. His father, Julius Caesar, told me stories about Marconie in Italy and how mothers would not let their children walk past his two story house because they thought he was crazy. The farm radio was a 1932 Philco Tombstonewhich I listened to Arther Godfrey, The Lone Ranger and Tom Mix. I requested my Extra class callsign be reissued. I was first licensed as KN9EUV in 1955. I took my General exam in Chicago in 1956. Antenna Farm
