(Formerly KB3JLZ)

I am a retired Navy AEGIS Fire Control Technician. I have been licensed since April 2003 and really enjoy being an amateur radio operator (sometimes I wonder why I didnt do it sooner...) I prefer SSB and Digital modes (070 #352 and 30m digital group #400) yeah yeah.... I havent gotten my first CW QSL yet but im working on it! I am also RACES/ARES and here in the county and do assist in anything that I am requested to assist in.

Now for the QSL info....

I do prefer paper QSL's only and will qsl 100% with you that way. I really....REALLY..do not use Eqsl or LOTW. (First off, I am not registered with LOTW and second, I cant use Eqsl for ARRL stuffz...you know the story) But if you didnt read this or just skimmed thru and Eqsl'd anyway... Sigh...I guess I will answer it but look forward to a paper card and hopefully...just hopefully you will return the favor and hard qsl with me. For hard qsl's, SASE's/IRC's ARE NOT required but do make a nice touch.

73 and hope to catch you on the bands.

P.S. Again I cannot stress this enough! I really do not prefer EQSL but will answer if you promise to reply to my hard QSL! I am not registered nor plan to register with LOTW so please don't use it to QSL with me. Thanks!
