My interests in the hobby of Amateur Radio are the following My club the Stow DX Group and my club callsign is W3FLQ.I also hold the M.A.R.S. Call sign AFA1QB. I'm on the following bands: 75/80 meters, 40 meters,20 meters,17 meters,15 meters,12 meters,10 meters, 6 meters, 2 meters,220 MHz, 430/440 MHz, HF,VHF,UHF...My favorite bands are 10 meters and 17 meters.I hope to be on the 160 meters band someday when I find an antenna for that band. I also like to use packet and slow scan tv and want to learn other modes also. I am working on trying to set up an ARPS station. I like to work with computers and build them too. I would like to upgrade to Amateur Extra Class. I like the hobby and I also try to get others interested to keep the hobby going. I like to go fishing and hunting when I have the time. Taking pictures is one of the things I like to do when I go on vacation and I always have the HT with me also. I have restored a 1969 Jeep CJ-5 (same body type as the Willys). In the summer I like to ride my motorcycle with my friends and trail riding with my four wheeler. I would like to say a BIG THANKS to two friends of mine for being so persist with me.Working on passing the code. I would have a radio that I could not use if it wasn't for the help of Steve and Dale.Many thanks go out to Steve Greathouse AC6EA/8 and Dale Harper KC8FAQ.
