Hi, I am Don and I reside in Baker, Louisiana. As you probably guessed by the Photo, my first choice of hobbies is Fishing and then Amateur Radio. Been a Ham for over 30 years and have enjoyed every minute. I must say, I have met some of the most wonderful friends in this world via Ham Radio. As of this date my ARRL Awards consist of DXCC Honor Roll (349 Total SSB and 347 C/W), WAS ON 8 BANDS, WAZ, and 7 Band DXCC, and on the IOTA Honor Roll, at 1057+

PLEASE NOTE: ONLY WAY TO QSL ME ANYMORE IS LOTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHEN I AM IN DIGITAL AND SAY LOTW ONLY!, THAT IS BC I HAVE NO MORE QSL CARDS.

I WILL NOT QSL VIA BURO,OR DIRECT,ONLY REQUEST IS LOTW.

IF YOU WORK ME IN DIGITAL, MAKE IT SHORT AND SWEET. I DON'T NEED A GROUP OF CLUB #, AND YOUR LIFE HISTORY. JUST A REPORT NAME AND LOCATION. 73 MEANS GOOD BYE THANK YOU.

Other hobbies include Fishing, Flying, and Computers. I retired June of 1995.My Wife, Oii is from Bangkok Thailand, and is now an American citizen, and we have two sons. Their names being Alain and Anthony. As of now got three young Grandchildren,2 boys and one girl. Don't travel anymore so just play the bands and mostly digital or warc bands. Let us all hope 2012, brings less diasters, and a better managed Goverment, for the future of the Young ones. .
