PODCAST: This Week in Amateur Radio SPECIAL BONUS AUDIO - AJ8B Interview with ARRL CEO NA2AA With permission from the "DX Mentor" Bill Salyers, AJ8B, we are proud to present his interview with ARRL CEO David Minster. This is from Episode 63 of "The DX Mentor". You can visit Bill's Youtube channel at https://www.youtube.com/@thedxmentor and be sure to like/subscribe to his channel to get notified of future episodes. You can watch the video on Youtube here: https://youtu.be/yxWD-qI2DJM?si=TRK4mHSFsQt7ZpuP Send Bill an email at "thedxmentor" at gmail Facebook: facebook.com/thedxmentor About the DX Mentor: The purpose of The DX Mentor channel is to provide a way to recruit, educate, and retain amateurs who have some level of interest in DX. Whether it is a passing interest in chasing DX, someone who is fully invested in chasing DX but needs the “next level” of information to continue their journey, or those amateurs that are interested in DX and want to learn more on a broad array of topics, we want to help them all along the journey. The format of these videos is a little different than other amateur radio channels for several reasons. First, it is not a host waxing philosophically about their personal experiences. The host will play the role of mediator ensuring that the topic is addressed while allowing flexibility for the guests to share experiences and knowledge. The host is the DX Mentor, not the DX Guru!
