The Radio Boys with the Forest Rangers

Gelesen von LibriVox Volunteers

(3,571 Sterne; 7 Bewertungen)

Radio is an ideal boy’s hobby, but it's not limited to youth. It offers a wonderful scope for the unquenchable enthusiasm that accompanies the application of youthful endeavor, and it's a fact that the majority of the wonderful inventions and improvements that have been made in radio have been produced by young men.
The Radio Boys are school chums enraptured by the thrill and potential of wireless voice transmission in the early days of the 20th Century. These are adventures of American youth as captured in print by Mark Twain, Rudyard Kipling, Robert Louis Stevenson, Jules Verne and Franklin W. Dixon.

Tom Hirsh is very good, a delight to listen to. Jim Locke on the other hand runs his sentences together is stilted and has no inflections to his speech. very uncomfortable to listen to. I could not finish the story, Locke drove me crazy. W7NQM

Giving this one a rather low rating because I found several aspects of the scenarios in the last four or five chapters completely preposterous.
