These are a few sites and links that may be of interest. People used to ask me about useful Internet sites and I got tired of rummaging through my bookmarks and favorites in order to respond via e-mail. Instead, you have the information on-line. Like everything else on Internet, use at your own risk.

Amateur and Commercial Radio History
August 31, 2002
Field day is named after C. W. Field who in 1858 laid the first successful trans-Atlantic telegraphic cable. (Not!)
The Titanic was not the first vessel to change from the "old" CQD distress signal to the "new" SOS. The Azaohoe was. The first recorded distress call.
