Hamfest Preview: Radio Museum!
Explore the Signals Museum in Huntsville
This week we had the honor to meet and interview Dr. Marc Bendickson who is the collector behind the new Signals Museum in Huntsville, AL. Just walking in the door you know it's going to be amazing. It's way more than just old radios; it's a treasure trove of stories and a tribute to radio history. The museum spans about 200 years of communication history and each stage has working equipment and hands on stations to learn even more about history.
The self guided tour enhanced with augmented reality characters are an extra bonus of technology built right into your experience. There are also tour guides around the museum to walk you through and explain even more.
