First licensed in early 1966 as WN3FEW (novice) at the age of 16. Moved to New
Jersey in late 1966 and upgraded to WB2ZAD (general). Was inactive for a few
years and started again in 1985 as N2FET (general). Upgraded to Extra in 1987
and then in 2002 I changed my call to K2VY.
I am most active on 15 & 17 meter SSB. My present rig is an Icom IC-756PRO and
a pair of 572B's in grounded grid (a home brew amplifier built in an SB-200
cabinet). Transmit and receive audio processing includes: Heil PR-20 mic, dbx
286A mic preamp/processor, Behringer MX882 splitter/mixer, DOD 231Q dual
31-band audio equalizer and the Crown D-45 audio amplifier driving an Infinity
CC-3 speaker. I am not into ESSB, but I really enjoy trying to produce the best
sounding audio within a 3KHz bandwidth. The Knight T-60 transmitter and
Lafayette HA-230 receiver are from my 1966 novice station.
My antennas are a 15-10 meter Hex Beam up 35 feet and a home-brew 17 meter
vertical dipole.
My main business is Web design and hosting ( http://www.HolbenWebDesign.com )
and a secondary business of commercial photography ( http://www.HolbenPhoto.com
).
