Biography

I have been a ham for 40+ years. The photo is when I was at W1AW working the W100AW station. I enjoy mobile operations ether in 4 wheels or on 2 wheels. My father (Ted Johnston) got me into the hobby back then,this is why I have a vanity call, it was his call and he got it the year I was born, my old calls were, WD8EKW & KC8RY.

Thank you for viewing my call and hope to work as many as I can.

73's and good DXing
