Biography

I am a rather active Amateur... I primarly am QRV on either CW or SSB Prefer CW as I can talk alot faster and the contact rolls along quicker, I also like Dxing at heart I am a DX hunter, so I'm always on the prowl for that elusive ATNO!! So if you ever hear me calling CQ or in the piles I wish you best 73 es Good DX, I hope my fellow OMs and YLs can profit from the ATNOs that may come across the bands, Also you can find me on Echolink too I do monitor Echolink when I'm QRV Echlink information is Listed Below
