Help!

This is the type question Pat Walsh could have answered in a second. I have asked this before, so let me repeat it. Someone out there has the answer.

RIchard Weithan a/k/a Buddy Karr started the first Toys for Tots marathon broadcast from Toy Hill. The question is who succeeded Richard, before Matt White a/k/a Sonny Martin took over and did it for years.

If you have the answer please email me at ajlinds@yahoo.com.

A.J., this is related to the subject, along a similar line. I was reading in a past issue of QST (the Ham radio magazine of the American Radio Relay League) where Patty Loveless, a country music artist and Ham radio operator (callsign KD4WUJ) was Honorary National Chairperson for a similar toy drive. See this link:

It is interesting, the number of celebrities and important people who are Ham radio operators! Here's just a sampling, there are probably more, see this link:

A.J., have you ever met any music artists or other celebrities while in your line of work who you knew were Ham radio operators?

Merry Christmas! Bud, Mobile, AL
