[arrl-odv:34242] KJ7NLL video interview

Thought you all might enjoy this video clip of a local "young ham" prodigy, (Ezekiel Wheeler, KJ7NLL) recently being interviewed by one of our local Portland area TV stations. (KGW 8) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPTZ-arDDCo&t=22s There are links to quite a few other videos on his QRZ page. Fascinating. Where will this kid end up? My guess is that in a few years he will be cleaning out the Foundation's Scholarship funds, if he doesn't get a full ride somewhere. 73; Mike W7VO

Awesome! STEM and ham radio. Wow. Great video. He did a really good job in the interview. Hopefully, he can recruit some others in his generation! He's already setting a good example. Thanks, Mike.

Oh, and I loved the way he locked down his chair. Reminded me of getting ready to work a pileup or a contest!

Agreed! I have one of those Aeron chairs in the shack and they wheel around very easily. I need a locking mechanism for mine too! What a great story. Thanks Mike.
