Biography
My interest in Ham Radio began while I was in the Army (1965-1968) after returning from Viet-Nam I was assigned to FT Huachuca, Az. I was a radio operator instructor on antenna use for the Military. But after the service living got in the way and did not permit for extraarticular actives. Receive my Tech ticket 2 years ago and my General in 2019. Radio changed lot from those years, and it has been a real learning curve. Currently I am studying for my Extra.
