Hi and thanks for looking me up on QRZ. I am 65 years old and been hamming for 26 years now only on CW. My first love in ham radio next to CW is DXing. I belong to the Centeral Arizona DX Association, and spend as much time as possible chasing the new ones. I was out of the hobby for one year in 2008 but since then very active.

I am married to my wife Judy of 36 years, ( she just puts up with me) and have two wonderful kids and 3 grandkids. I am a tool and die maker for the Corning Corporation located in Glendale, AZ. My operating conditions consist of a IC-756 Pro 2, a Yaesu FT-920, along with a Ameritron AL-811H amp. I hope we have had a chat on the air and if not I always look forward to another CW Q in the log. Working my way towards DX Honor Roll, if I live that long, and just enjoy the best hobby in the world.

73/DX,

Ron N7RD
