    Today, when GPS provides astounding levels of absolute position accuracy, it can be hard to appreciate the navigational challenges that Amelia Earhart and Fred Noonan experienced on their around the world flight in 1937. Radio played an important part in in their success, and possibly in their failure.

    member Brian Harrison, KN4R, takes a deep dive into the role of radio in Earhart's last flight, it's possible role in her disappearance and how a group of dedicated researchers are recreating Earhart's and Noonan's original transmissions using the same type equipment to help solve the mystery of their disappearance, and maybe even locate their Lockheed Electra 10E.
