At 97, ham radio operator still scanning the airwaves - News - TriCities.com: "SPECIAL TO THE HERALD COURIER BRISTOL, Tenn. – At 97, Margaret Roberts is lucid and lively and the owner of a new pacemaker. “The doctor said they normally wouldn’t give a pacemaker to someone her age,” said her niece-in-law, Linda Bowers. “But he checked her out and said she was a good candidate.” Roberts has more than just her good health to surprise people. She has been a licensed amateur radio operator, a “ham,” since 1947 and still broadcasts today. "
