Visiting Jordan and it's amateurs was a dream come true for me on more than one occasion. Inspired by frequent contacts with the many Arabian friends I have come to know via radio, I was more than anxious to travel to Amman and meet some of them personally.
QRV for the first time in October 1986, I was also active on subsequent visits in October '95, '96, and '97. I wish to thank the Royal Jordanian Radio Amateur Society (RJRAS) including JY2RZ, JY4MB, and JY5IM for their licensing assistance. Over 8,600 QSO's were made on CW & SSB during any spare time I could find while visiting there. DXCC was also earned from the thousands of QSL's received.
A special thanks to my long-time close personal friend Salah, JY5SK and his family who always made my visits to Jordan so memorable. In addition, for their hospitality and kindness, a big "thank you" to JY3ZH, JY5CA, JY5HX, and JY9QJ. There is a much longer list of JY friends with whom I shared time with, and they are not to be considered any less important. There is an even more extensive list of non-amateur friends (or I should say 'family') which still make me feel as if Amman is my 'second home'.
I miss the people of Jordan so much and hope to travel there again many more times in the future. Till then, they are in my thoughts always. I hope that I'll have the opportunity to go back soon. If you need a contact with Jordan, I also hope that your callsign will appear in my log pages.
73, Bob - JY8XY
