Hi, everyone! I'm a 50 year-old electrical engineer, comp-sci engineer and sales executive that returned to amateur radio in 2007, after a 20 year hiatus. I am active on HF, having been bitten by the DX bug. I am am also active in HF WAS nets, and am honored to by a Net Control Station for OMISS.

Station highlights include:

• ANAN-100D
• Elecraft K3-100
• SRL QS1R DDC SDR receiver
• SteppIR DB-18E
• Butternut HF9V
• RadioWorks Carolina Windom 80
• Pixel Technologies RF-PRO 1B magnetic loop with preamp
• Yaesu VL1000/VP1000 Quadra amplifier

I listen to the Livingston (MI USA) County Amateur Radio Klub 2M repeater @ 146.680 MHz, so say "hi" if you're in the area.I look forward to hearing from you.

73,
