First licensed as WN4HUS in 1967, spent many an afternoon on 15m CW rather than doing my homework.Got my Advanced ticket in '68 (never held a General ticket), and upgraded to Extra as soon as the law allowed in 1970. Became N4QM in 1976. Recently became an ARRL Life Member.

The boundary between FM06ng and FM06nh literally bisects my antenna farm.

Here's the view of the farm across the street from my front porch:

My mobile antenna installation. The horizontal "element" is a capacity piece I add in to move the resonant point from 3895 KHz to 3675 KHz:

I just upgraded the shack radio to a new TS-590S Kenwood, and so far I am very pleased. The noise blanker is very effective against the power line noise I get on 160m and 75m from the power lines which are a scant 600 feet west of my QTH. Also have an Ameritron AL-80B, and a Yaesu FT-450 in the truck. Have been working some 10m DX mobile now that the band is open again.

73, and good DX!
