I have been an Amateur Radio Operator for 40 Years. I was first licensed as

Next, I upgraded to Advance Class. Finally, I upgraded to Extra in 1990. I
changed my call to WV9O.
I operate from 160 meters to 70 cm amateur band. I am a member of the Lake
County Amateur Radio Club and trustee for the club’s call W9LJ. I am active in
Emergency Communications and the Geratol
I am a member of:
