Radio Club press release
The Cedar Creek Amateur Radio Club will feature a former FCC Enforcer as its guest speaker via Skype at its next meeting, Saturday, July 12, at 9 a.m. at the Mabank Café.
Riley Hollingsworth, K4ZDH, held the title of Special Counsel for the Spectrum Enforcement Division of the FCC’s Enforcement Bureau until his retirement in 2008. A popular speaker at ham radio conventions nationwide, Hollingsworth visited with the CCARC last winter via Skype videoconferencing. He was such a hit with members that he will be back to tell more “war stories” about his career as chief enforcer for the FCC.
The meeting will begin at 9 a.m., but most members come early to enjoy Mabank Café’s excellent buffet breakfast. All ham operators and anyone interested in Amateur Radio are invited to attend.
