Okay, so I was browsing some random stuff online today, and I stumbled upon this interesting question: “what member of the eagles has a ham radio license?” I was like, “Seriously? One of the Eagles is a ham radio operator?” I had to find out.
First, I hit up Google. I just typed in the question, hoping for a quick answer. I got tons of forum posts and articles, some of which mentioned Joe Walsh. I was starting to get a pretty good idea, but it’s good to dig a little deeper, you know?
I started reading through some of those forum discussions. Lots of people were talking about Joe Walsh, and some even mentioned his call sign, WB6ACU. That sounded pretty legit. I mean, anyone can say anything on the internet, but a call sign? That’s something you can actually check.
So I explored further, and my curiosity was truly piqued.
Confirming The Call Sign
I found out the offical website, and looked into the information. I put in WB6ACU. I keyed in that call sign, hit enter, and boom! There it was, all the official info confirming it was indeed Joe Walsh’s.
It’s pretty cool when you think about it. This rock and roll legend, guitarist for one of the biggest bands ever, is also fiddling around with radios in his spare time. It just goes to show you, people have all kinds of hidden hobbies.
