I started hamming in High School in 1968 as WA5TYX in San Antonio Texas. After moving to Colorado in 1985 I finally changed my call to KI0KB in 1997. I just upgraded my station thanks to a trip to the Dayton Hamvention in May 2010 and I'm currently working with a Yaesu FTdx 5000. I acquired an Alpha 9500 amplifier which is the newest addition to my ham shack from my most recenttrip to Dayton, 2012.My antenna is a 3 element SteppIR DB-18 which covers 6-10-12-15-17-20-30-40 meters that I have up on a fourty foot Universal aluminum tower. The tower went up in June 1999. The SteppIR went up the Summer of 2011. I also have a 45 foot GAP Voyager to cover 80 and160 meters. I operate mobile with an ICOM 7000 and a AH-4 tuner into an 8 foot whip on a Nissan Xterra 4WD.

I am also a founding member of WC7WB, The Wyoming Colorado Amatuer Radio Club, "The Wild Bunch" and we operate the DX contests when we can from either Colorado or Wyoming. 73's Jeff

Watch for WC7WB operating from Wyoming for Field Day this June.

QSL'S: I prefer to QSL directly since it usually takes a year or longer via the bureau but I do answer all QSL's no matter how they get here or how long it takes. I alsoupload all of my logs to LoTW73's de KI0KB
