At sixteen Henry Vicent was separated from his family as a result of war. He wandered aimlessly from one country to another before finally setting down in Australia, where he trained as an electronics engineer. He established his own business but it called for so much work that marriage was out of the question.
His retirement suddenly made him realize how lonely he was and he decided to take up a hobby. With his interest in electronics, amateur radio seemed a natural choice. He installed his own equipment and obtained a licence and his call sign, which is the set of letters and numbers used to announce oneself when making radio contact with other radio amateurs all over the world.
Soon Henry had a great many contacts in far-off places. One in particular was a man in California with whom he had much in common. One night the man in California happened to mention the village in Europe he had come from. Suddenly, Henry realised that this man was in fact his younger brother, Peter. At first, the two brothers were at a loss for words but then little by little they filled in the details of their past lives and not long afterwards Henry Vicent flew to California to be reunited with his brother.
