This week, Will takes us back to the mid 1920's where we find that for amateurs, crossing the Atlantic was the next natural challenge. They had been thinking about it since before the war. Many in the scientific community were skeptical that such a feat could possibly be achieved at such a short wavelength as 200 meters, especially with power as low as one kilowatt. This week's Episode is called "Crossings, Part One: Aquitania"
