I am an avid DX'er and contester. Please give me a call when you hear me on the air. My favorite mode is CW, and I also operate SSB and 10 Meter FM (I hope to be on RTTY soon). I operate the HF bands (10 thru 160). You may have run across me with previous calls: KMØR, KBØTU or KAØACI. I am the an active member of the Mississippi Valley DX/Contest Club (the DX hogs) and Trustee of the club station - KMØDX. And I am contest committee chairman of the Boeing Employees' Amateur Radio Society (BEARS) St. Louis.

I operated as OA4/WØTT in Nov 2005, and multi-op’ed 2005 CQWW CW contest as OC4O with DL5YWM, from the Radio Club Peruano in Lima. I visited Ham friends in Fukui, Japan in 2007, but do not have a Japanese license. See the nice newspaper article at:

All logs are on LoTW, and QSL is OK via direct or Bureau. E-mail requests to check logs and for Bureau cards OK. No eQSL.

Also if you need Missouri (or St. Louis County) on a particular band or mode, you may suggest a schedule thru E-mail and I'll try to accommodate.

73, good DX, and I hope to catch you in the next contest!

TRIBUTE TO FORMER WØTT CALLSIGN HOLDER:

The WØTT callsign was previously held by Robert D. (Dean) Morrison who is now a Silent Key (notice in November 1984 QST). I did not have the pleasure of meeting Dean during his lifetime, and I know very little about him. But I am now trying to locate family members to find out more information. If any readers remember Dean, or have any additional information about him, would you please contact me. I'm sure that Dean did the WØTT callsign proud, and I hope that I am able to continue in his footsteps.
