Primary interest since day one has always been chasing DX on CW and SSB.
IOTA's and Lighthouses are on the list of regular activities as well.
Current station is an FT920 and a TA33
After many years of service the 5 band 2 element Gemquad has been replaced with a rebuilt TA33.
Aplha Delta DX-B 1/4 sloper. Cubex Yellow Jacket-46 quad for 2m and 70 cm
Like many hams as the DXCC 'needed' list shrinks I found my interest in DXing fading a little.
LEO satellites and activating Lighthouses has become another activity of recent years.
CAN540 and CAN 541 are a few Km away.
Arrow antenna on a tripod for AO51.
