Bob Schroeder, N2HX, Awarded 2009 ARRL Bill Orr, W6SAI, Technical Writing Award

arrlH. Robert "Bob" Schroeder, N2HX, of Ewing, New Jersey, has been named the winner of the ARRL’s 2009 Bill Orr, W6SAI, Technical Writing Award for his article "Electromagnetic Pulse and Its Implications for EmComm" that appeared in November 2009 issue of QST. The editorial staff commented on Schroeder’s article, saying that "the topic of nuclear EMP is somewhat esoteric by itself, let alone discussing its impact on Amateur Radio, yet the author did an outstanding job of making the subject matter understandable even to the relatively non-technical ham.
