K6VO is the the call of our family club, in memory of my father. Ralph James Roode, K6VO, passed away on May 12, 1999. He was a ham since 1938 with previous calls including W8SNJ, W3SNJ, K3JJX, W5OIC, W5EQ, W8NH and several that I do not remember.

Currently, the call K6VO is active in some contests - several fellow members of the South Orange Amateur Radio Association (SOARA http://www.soara.org ) and I activited it from San Bernardino County in the 2003 California QSO Party. A similar effort is planned for 2004.

QSL K6VO or K6VO/5 via K6NR.
