Hi Tom

My father, RIP, was a ham radio operator, from way back. He had his first class license. He was also AA for 24 years.

Anyway, welcome to SR.

Welcome, Tom! and congratulations on the 25 years sober! Sometimes I can't imagine 25 weeks, let alone 25 years! It's always great to have the wisdom of someone who has been sober for so long, and I look forward to hearing your story and how you managed to stay clean!
