Biography

Hello! Thanks for stopping by.
I got my ticket Nov 2019 (KE0YIY)and passed my General in January 2020 and applied for a vanity (W0WDX aka W0 rld W ide DX)and got it! Passed my element 4 exam!(07/17/21) My father has been a ham since the early 80’s (N9GZ) and his passion is CW. I hope to become an accomplished fist after I get the Extra out of the way. Absolutely loving the hobby and making contacts. First DX contact was in Brazil! My current HF rigs are as follows Yaesu FT-1000MP Mark V, Yaesu FT 847. I have a Maxcon 80 meter ocf multi band dipole(inverted V configuration)currently running North/South at 45’.
