A guy at work asked me for the address of Handi-Hams. After thinking about
it I thought that there might be other people out there who might want it too:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is the address of Handi-Hams. Handi-Hams is an
organization of handicapped and non-handicapped people who
help other handicapped people get licensed and on the air.
If you know of a handicapped person, licensed or unlicensed,
who would like assistance or if you would like to help,
contact Keith Graham who is the director:
Keith Graham
Handi-Ham Systems
Courage Center
3915 Golden Valley Road
Golden Valley, MN 55422
The preceding information was given to me by Gayle WA1OPN
from Worcester, MA. Gayle is a blind and deaf Amateur also
suffering from MS. She is limited to CW operation only but
is in the process of getting the necessary equipment which
will allow her to operate packet. As anyone who knows Gayle
will agree, she is an inspiration in the truest sense of the
word. Despite her three handicaps, she earned an extra
class license, teaches radio theory to people around the
world, holds two part time jobs and writes articles about
computers and the handicapped which have been published in
several languages. She has received many awards including a
commendation from President Reagan.
