KICKER: GETTING A BETTER READ ON RADIO, PAGE BY PAGE

DON/ANCHOR: Finally, if listening to radio and talking on radio isn't 
quite enough for you, consider joining a book club that also lets you 
read all about radio. Let Randy Sly, W4XJ, be your guide.

RANDY: To amateur radio operators, a lengthy conversation on the air is 
called a “rag chew” and most "rag chews" are about...you guessed it...
ham radio. So when Russell Calabrese, KR2NZ, established a book club for 
members of the Long Island CW Club, the topic was...you guessed it...ham 
radio, but with a twist! Meeting approximately every six weeks on Sundays 
at 6 p.m. Eastern time, the book club digs into the interesting world of 
amateur radio through fiction, non-fiction, technical and historical 
books. For example, the current book is "200 Meters and Down" by Clifton 
DeSoto, which covers the strides and setbacks that were present when 
radio pioneers were establishing the amateur radio service during its 
early years.

Interested readers can join anytime. The meeting times and information 
are posted on the LICW calendar at longislandcwclub.org. Asked what is 
next for the book club, Russell said he has added a "movie club" aspect, 
featuring films and documentaries with a connection to...you guessed 
it...ham radio.

I'm Randy Sly, W4XJ
