It is a new hobby for me. Still trying to learn more on my way to General.

So far I survived four ARRL Field Days, two Winter Field Day and three Internat. Lighthouse events. More to come, I hope! Oh boy, how nice to work some DX-SSB . can smell the General ticket.

Shack-10/6m: Yaesu FT-920 driving a Yaesu FL-2100B (10m section modified by KF4KUL, for 6m Operation, around 400 watts output on SSB) into a 3 element Beam around 25 feet up.

Shack-VHF/UHF: Yaesu FT-847 into a ARROW Dual-Band J-Pole Antenna.

Mobile-APRS: Tiny Trak (n2mjp-9)

Mobile-VHF/UHF: TM-G707A into a SBB-7 antenna.

Office-VHF/UHF: Yaesu VX3R into a Ringo-Ranger.

Active in Skywarn and once a month I'm running the evening "MJ-Show" (LOL) on the Pinellas County (FL) Simplex net (147.550 MHz) using a Yaesu FT-847 with an ARROW J-Pole Antenna. (Dual-Band).

I'm also a proud member of the ALPHA-ALPHA Group (Ham Radio done right great peoples, fun and good food)
