Biography

If we had a QSO on July 12 - 16 2021 I was operating portable from Medicine Mountain Scout Rance in Custer, South Dakota, U.S.A. That is Maidenhead Grid DN83dv, which I expect has not been activated for quite some time and will not be activated again for quite a while.

Equipment

I have a Kenwood TS-440AT running 100 watts through an MFJ-969 tuner into a simple 40m dipole that runs north/south and is suspended about 12 m from the ground. That's it! No amplifiers, no Yagi, no tower. Ah, well, it is enough to have fun with and I am certainly doing that. I use PSK and other digital modes a lot when other people are in the house and SSB when I am home alone or if it is late at night.
