Pahrump VE is "paying it forward"
You'll find them pretty much on a monthly basis, in church basements, at Lodges, schools, and town halls across the country...each giving up a chunk of their free time so that another persons life can be enriched by ham radio. They are the VE's....Volunteer Examiners that welcome each new comer to our ranks.
Dick Grady-AC7EL is part of the foundation that makes up the VE Team in Nye County. Grady and the other members of the Pahrump crew, know all about how ham radio benefits the community. They also know firsthand of the benefits of being an amateur radio operator.
