Greetings from New Zealand
A ham for 47 years. First licensed in India, I re-licensed in NZ in 2005.
A former Merchant Ship captain, I now work ashore in the Pacific region.
My main area of interest in the hobby is working portable for which I use the Elecraft KX2, the Tr(U)SDX and the QDX from QRP Labs. All antennae are home brewed small and lightweight.
All digital modes interest me and you can often catch me on FT4, FT8 and JS8Call
