Biography

Licensed in 2009. Located in Malabar, Florida - The Sunshine State!! Formally from Brightwaters, Long Island, New York.

I Enjoy DXing, contesting and work all bands from 160M to 70cm. I currently am using the ICOM 7610 into End fed 130' wire. Unfortunately I live in A HOA community so I need stealthy antennas. I work all modes but have poor CW skills, so please be patient. Also, I am an ARRL life member & accredited Volunteer Examiner.

I am a QSL card collector, so please send me a card either direct or through the Bureau to confirm our contact. I also upload all contacts to LOTW and will also respond to eQSL's too. If you confirm via eQSL's or LOTW, please be so kind to send me a paper qsl card (direct / bureau), and I will respond via same.

If you hear me on the air, please say hello. I appreciate all contacts. Hope to see you down the log.

73, Charles

Equipment

My primary radio is the ICOM 7610 but I also have a Kenwood TS-940S (when it works), Kenwood TS-430, Yaesu FT 857D and Yaesu FT-60 Handheld. I only run barefoot but experiment with many home-brewed antennas in a small lot.
