When is the last time you heard a truly entertaining after-dinner talk about ham radio? Well, here’s one from Hap Holly/KC9RP’s archive called "Your Code Record is Cracked." It was given during the 1989 Dayton Hamvention banquet in Dayton, Ohio. The speaker was Dave Bell/W6AQ, a full-time Hollywood Producer and Director. Dave produced three ham radio videos: A Ham’s Wide World, Moving Up to Amateur Radio, and the original World of Ham Radio. Movie credits include (among others) "Do You Remember Love", "Nadia", and "The Long Walk Home" plus, some made-for-TV movies. Other television credits include the series "Unsolved Mysteries".

Recipient of the Dayton Hamvention 1984 Radio Amateur of the Year, Dave was an inveterate DX’er, having operated from Macao, 4U1ITU in Geneva, Switzerland, and twice from JY1, (formerly King Husein’s station in Jordan). Here now is part 1 of Dave Bell’s memorable talk, “Your Code Record is Cracked.”

That concludes part one of “Your Code Record is Cracked.” But the best is yet to come—next time in part two of this humorous after-dinner talk given 35 years ago. We’ll conclude this presentation in RAIN Hamcast Podcast #110.
