Bob Naumann and I discussed this yesterday evening. These are the kinds of exhibits that our historical collection would benefit from. Bob has a great story about a contester who worked JY1 back in the day and treated him as if he was a Slim… JY1 responded “NO! I am the KING! I am the KING!” 😊 From: arrl-odv <arrl-odv-bounces@reflector.arrl.org> On Behalf Of david davidsiddall-law.com Sent: Tuesday, June 13, 2023 11:08 PM To: arrl-odv@reflector.arrl.org <arrl-odv-bounces@reflector.arrl.org> Subject: [arrl-odv:34880] King Hussein's Equipment Donated to RSGB for Display ODV, Thought this would be of interest. The Radio Society of Great Britain announced earlier today that Queen Noor of Jordan is donating the amateur radio equipment of the late King Hussein to the Society.
