Thanks for the visit. My radio interests have always centered around my love of CW and it has been my only mode of communications on the HF bands since the day I was first licensed. I enjoy both rag-chewing on the CW bands as well as chasing DX. Locally, I enjoy the simplex/repeater contacts that keep local hams in touch on a day-to-day basis.
I am a member of the ARRL, QCWA, SKCC, FISTS, CWops, and NAQCC. I am an ARRL Official Relay Station and an ARRL A-1 Operator.
I am a pre-sorter and the letter "O" Sorter for the WØ QSL Bureau, as well as a Net Control Station for the Region TEN NTS Cycle 4 (3562 kHz) traffic net.
