My name is Jim Fidler. I’ve been into radio of all kinds pretty much since birth and got my advanced ticket in 1984.
I’m a musician, recording artist and record producer and my shack is actually in the control room of my recording studio.
My XYL, Lillian (VO1XYL) and I did a show called Republic of Avalon Radio. republicofavalonradio.com
Episode 73 was dedicated to all things radio, with a great focus on amateur radio. You can listen here (just scroll down to episode 73).
Over the years, I’ve had lots of fun communicating with people all around the world via many bands and modes. We currently host a channel, ROAR (Republic of Avalon Radio), accessible on zello.
