This photo was taken at Saturday’s ARRL Midwest Division Convention / Winterfest Hamfest sponsored by the St. Louis and Suburban Radio Club. Charlie is 18 and a freshman at Webster University, St. Louis, MO. He is a Sound Engineering major at the University and also an accomplished musician, playing both bass guitar and the upright string base. Charlie recently received his technician class license ! The photo shows Charlie completing his ARRL Associate Membership Application under the watchful eyes of proud grandpa, Bob Heil, K9EID. Charlie surprised his grandfather with his FCC license as a birthday present for Grandpa ! As I explained to Charlie and his grandfather, I will hold his Associate Membership application for submittal until you let me know that the “system” is ready to process this new class of membership for full time students aged 21 and younger.
