I have been in this fantastic hobby since 1961. I am retired from Motorola, a two way radio business, and now own an hvac business here in the DFW, TX area.

I volunteer with the ARRL as an Official Observer and a Technical Specialist. I am also an ARRL Volunteer Examineer and W5YI Volunteer Examineer.

I am a member of the South Carolina Side Band Net and try to check in on 3915 during the Fall & Winter months when propagation allows.

I like DXing on 80 and 40 meters during the Winter months .My 5 Watt 10 Meter Beacon will be found at 28.235.5 Mhz.when 10 mtrs begins to open up again. Reports to FMeacher@aol.com are appreciated!

73,
