Washington Army Radio (WAR) had as much to do with amateur
radio as ham-astronauts got into spaceflight through ham radio. :-)

Actually, Scummy, WAR has played host to actual licensed Amateurs
as "guest operators" on more than one occassion over it's several
decade history.

Also, if you really knew as much about the space program as you
allude, you'd know that at least two Astronauts have credited Amateur
Radio as thier "intro" to technology in grade school and subsequent
career path to engineering.

Too bad your career path in engineering wasn't sufficient to
prepare you for licensure in Amateur Radio. Maybe a licensing course
at a local middle school...?!?!
