I have been a ham for 9 years and counting, tried a little bit of everything, love to experiment with new bands and modes. I first became aware of my interest in radio back in 8th grade when late one night I was listening to the noise on my AM walkman trying to find the weak stations. That lead to some CB stuff in high school and then my freshman year in college I received my ticket. Upgraded from Tech to Extra in a year and changed to my current call. My main interest is on the VHF+ bands, I run a 4x9 array on 144 MHz with the Kenwood ts-2000x and the Tokyo solid state amp @ 500+ watts. Also have antenna's up for 6 meters, 432 and 1296 MHz, future band will be 222 MHz.  I'm active on HF mostly in the winter, run the Mosley ta-33 yagi and also a 75 meter inverted V with a Dentron 160-10L amplifier @ 750 or so watts with the ts-2000x as the exciter.

Tokyo Hy-Power HL-500V   (500+ watt output @ 144 MHz)

M2 4x9 Array 144 MHz and 432 30 element cross yagi @ 45'

Directive Systems 1296 MHz array and Cushcraft 6 meter antenna @ 30 feet

Mosley ta-33 tri-band yagi @ 30'


I also installed a 2 meter beacon about two years ago; it is still currently transmitting on 144.288 (VVV de N0YK/B DM98mg). Consists of a pair of M2 stacked Ho Loops @ 100', feed with Andrews 1/2 hardline and runs 30 watts into the coax in the shack. I'm very interested in propagation reports that stations receive from it, so if you have time please email them to me.
