I am active from 160 Meters to the 10 GHz band. I enjoy home brewing my own
gear and operating the VHF/UHF contests. I organize an annual mini-DxPedition
to Martha's Vineyard Island every May for the New England QSO Party, and have
run special event stations from the tall sailing ships HMS Bounty and USCG
Barque Eagle. Fun stuff! I have recently been found running 160, 80, & 40 Meter
mobile.
As for the yellow car in the on-line QSL - Yup, it's mine! I used to race Pro
Funnycar Mod Bog cars for 8 seasons all around New England and New Jersey,
mostly on outdoor tracks. This 4WD car weighs in at just over 2,800 lbs with me
in it, and is powered by a 1,100 HP, nitrous oxide fed, Chevy 454 that turns
9000+ RPM! I no longer own the car, but it was so much fun I just had to make
it my QSL card photo.
My newest adventure is the construction of a kit airplane called a Glastar, and
I finally have my Private Pilot's license. I have slowly been building the
airplane, and have been having a great time flying Cessnas around New England
until my machine is complete.
