There are so very many great sites on the internet that address every conceivable aspect of this wonderful hobby, that it would be ridiculous to just show links to them all. Instead, the approach that will be taken will highlight the "best of the best", in the memberships' humble opinion. The criteria is "best bang" for the site - in other words, the sites which should be on every ham's bookmark, or favorite, list for reference. Additionally, in order to make this a more club-specific site, preferential links will be made to members sites. Also, some links will actually be added pages to this site that will be member highlight and biographical pages - their own ham-specific pages. They may add or subtract from these pages as time marches on, so check for changes often. There will definitely be sub-division of groups to allow better scanning and ease of 'surfing'.
