Fulton, NY – Since the early 1900's people have been experimenting with wireless radio. The Fulton Amateur Radio Club recently ran a Special Events Station to celebrate its 50th anniversary. When the day was done, Club members had spoken to over 300 amateur operators in 32 states, 2 provinces and 2 foreign countries. WRVO's Kate Percival has this audio postcard.
