EP&M the Pick of California's Carl Peck
Howard NØAZ, Carl Peck of San Luis Obispo, California, KN6SZT and his brother John Peck
The opportunity to visit Ensor Park and Museum while he was in the greater Kansas City area to see two of his brothers brought Carl Peck of San Luis Obispo, California, KN6SZT, to the eight-acre site earlier this month for what proved to be a most memorable experience.
The 103-Degree Telegraph Office
It was hot on Sunday, August 25th, at the Hollenberg Pony Express Festival near Hanover, KS--103°F hot to be precise. However, festival visitors still got to witness a working “Telegraph Office” in the form of a ham radio HF station operating the under a shade tree and using the callsign of KØASA. This Telegraph-Office display was just one of many displays at the festival depicting life in early America.
