I was licensed in 1966 and had to make the test at that time with CW.

My special interests are still on the Amateur Radio VHF bands.

Since the conditions are good on 10m band now, I'm working there in CW with 100W and HB9CV antenna.

From 12m to 20m I use my HyGain AV620 GP antenna.

My other hobby is to ride my Harley Davidson. A photo at the time of the "Roaring '60s" you will find on top right corner. hihi

More photos for Ham Radio and Moto-Biking are on my Web Page, please find it under Detail.

I am also QRV as W7MPL in Sierra Vista AZ, Cochise County.

. . . and before you ask: NO, I am NOT on Facebook, Twitter, Google+ or any of the so-called "Social Networks".

But I would love to meet you on the bands.

QSL Info: Via bureau, direct or LotW. I do not use e-QSL, but upload my log every now and then for the sake of those who use it. Love to collect paper QSL's in my album, they do not end up in a shoebox :-)
