Thanks for visiting my little corner of QRZ.We must have just finished-up a QSO.It was nice meeting you. I play with CW the most, I just seem to like it better. I never would have thought I'd be a CW OP but. My junk is as follows. Icom 706, with manual tuner and OCF dipole fed with ladderline. I use that set-up for most HF work. Also Icom 718, which I use for 60 meters with another manual tuner and the Carolina Windom 80. Also Icom 207 which I brought in from my mobile to monitor locally. I'm always re arranging the junk and stringing different wires around, the set-up is always in flux.

Other hobbies are competitive cycling,which because of advancing age has been toned down to recreational. I live with my wife Rori and daughter,Nicole(11). Nicole was recently a participent in the ISS/ ARISS program and got to talk to Leroy Chiao while he was in space.I work at the local high school.

If you visit Westhampton Bch, come in the summer.You'll enjoy the beaches, resturants,and night life. Nice meeting you!See you on the air. 73
