“Our eyes are natural, biological, electromagnetic wave receivers, created over millions of years by evolution. I guess it should come as no surprise that we are interested in building radio receivers, because in a certain sense we ARE radio receivers.”

“For a true radio amateur, there is no substitute for a real, on-the-air, shortwave radio contact. Some may wonder why we bother with all the radios and antennas, and all the uncertainty caused by sunspots and atmospheric conditions. Why not just pick up the phone and talk to whomever you want? Well, there is just something special about pulling a faint voice out of the ether using your own antenna and radio equipment, and then sending your voice back over the same ethereal path. The thrill is intensified greatly if you have built all or part of the equipment yourself.”
