Title: Did You Know Post by: Pete, WA2CWA on March 16, 2009, 05:43:04 PM The first thing a visitor sees upon entering the foyer of W1AW these days is the big roll-top desk of Hiram Percy Maxim. It was donated by Frances Beekley Haviland, daughter of F. Cheney Beekley, former advertising manager of QST, June 13, 2008. A vintage a.m. ham station sits upon it.
We need a picture of this. Title: Re: Did You Know Post by: w3jn on March 16, 2009, 06:25:09 PM I wonder how long it'll be before someone is told to "get rid of that crap in the foyer", as was apparently done with the old ARRL museum.
