Biography

Greetings from Haven Wisconsin USA!

I have been a Ham since 1987. Took a class with the W9DK ham club and passed my Novice ticket and it has been a fun time!
I especially enjoy Summer and Winter field day events.

I like to operate on 20, 40, 160 and listening on the 630m band.
Starting to mess with 630m and building an 80m to 630m converter.

Hope to here you on the airwaves!
