I am now just the right side of a bit shy of my goal of reading a bit better than a book-a-week, and it looks like the a busy summer will slow the pace, but not bring me to a complete stop/.
Let me know if you want information on a specific title, as unless it is Amateur Radio focused they won’t be reviewed here.
73 & Happy Reading
