Lincoln County Amateur Radio Club ARRL affiliated club in Oregon Shack O the Month K7EAB Somehow growing up in Eugene Oregon I never knew anyone that did amateur radio. Not an uncle not a geeky friend in high school. It was not until I was 52 years old that my position with Lincoln County brought me to this wonderful hobby and essential emergency response tool. My road to Ham radio began when I met with Jim Hawley V7VTW Emergency Manager to discuss with him the development of the first comprehensive Lincoln County Emergency Management Plan.
