I have started to use Calibre ebook management to download Ham Radio RSS feeds and e-mail them to my Kindle after converting them to the right format. The Fetch News function does this automatically as long as Calibre is running. Currently I receive the Southgate ARC feed and the NRRL feed.
Please suggest interesting Ham RSS feeds!

Good evening Mad's....I have to look into this as I own a Kindle and just use it for reading Ebooks. I've not really looked into all that it can do. I have noticed some blog posts by others have been done with the Kindle. Thanks for the link to Calibre.
