As
a kid I became friends with the local
TV repairman who was a ham and had a station
in the back of his shop. I spent many an
afternoon listening to his HRO 50. I was
originally licensed as a Novice in January 1990,
immediately got the upgrade bug, worked around the
clock on my code speed and passed the 13 wpm General a
few weeks later. I passed the Extra
Exam Friday December 9, 2016.
I have been enjoying this hobby for over
30 years. To all the operators who work me, thank
you and I will confirm via LOTW, eQSL and QRZ. I
upload to all systems every couple of days. I
will also send a paper card if you want/need that. Previous call(s) KB0FQM, W0DIT, AD0WS,
KG0J (this call now re-issued). Rigs: Icom IC-7300 Yaesu FT-1000MP |

Above,
NA4RR
6 band Hex Beam, installed November 2017.

Station
logging done with N3FJP ACL. Antennas
include a NA4RR Hex Beam, an 40M doublet fed with
balanced coax (see below) I frequently get questions
about the balanced coax feed for the doublet so I've
added a drawing with notes explaining what I am
using. Works very well for me. |
I
was
awarded the Rookie of the year in the KSQP in 2016.
I
hope to be back with the 1x1 call K0K in 2025 in the
Kansas QSO
Party. http://www.ksqsoparty.org/
