Look for me on SSB. I have operated on several trips MM offshore sailing from Maine to Key West including the Marion to Bermuda race. Recently (7/2011) operated MM with an IC-7000 and 13' whip aboard a 300' cruise ship on a circumnavigation of Iceland (TF).

Metalworking is another major leisure activity for me - welding, manual & CNC machining, etc. High power rocketry is another hobby, flying at Black Rock Desert, NV events, level L3.
