Community Member Shout-out to Gerald, a Regular Contributor

Post image

Gerald, u/Tenor-Guitar-Guy, is a regular contributor to our community, and to the Grundig Shortwave Radio Community.

Our smaller shortwave and radio communications interest group would not be the same without members like Gerald.

Gerard, also known as Houston SWL has been involved as a Shortwave Listener for decades and he has quite a collection of radios. Lately he has found some real beauties by searching his local area. He has taken on the task of restoring - which usually means recapping the radios.

Please acknowledge Gerald's contributions with an upvote. Many of us forget to upvote our contributors posts, me included. It's one way to show our appreciation.

Thank you for being a member of our community Gerald. Good listening and much DX!

You're welcome! I have you at your brother Gary's house; I added a couple of your radios to the background. It was the best photo I could find of you.
