Ham Radio Operator N5HGG (Handsome Good Guy)
 
Reverend Hall got his amateur radio operator's license in 1981, upgrading to general class operator in 1985. He joined the Military Auxiliary Radio Service and worked his way up to the position of Assistant State Director. In this capacity he would arise at 4am and hold a cw net on hf, with operators checking in statewide. Along with voice and Morse code, he used computerized packet radio, adding a Commodore 64 to his radio rig.
 

 
Naturally, all this activity required an antenna or two. Later Bill moved on to more sophisticated computers and the internet, leaving such primitive communication efforts to other hobbyists.
