HRWB 249 - Shore Station KPH with Richard Dillman W6AWO

In this episode we meet Richard Dillman, W6AWO, one of the key people responsible for putting historical shore station KPH back on the air. In this fascinating interview, Richard tells us about the history of KPH, when it was decomissioned and his efforts to put the station back on the air. This project is managed by the Maritime Radio Historical Society. Today KPH is on the air using commercial HF marine frequencies and on the ham bands as K6KPH. Many thanks to our good friend Kevin Mattison, KM6WUM, for pulling this show together. You can hear more about Kevin and his portable satellite tracker project in HRWB episode 120.
