Stream videos at Ustream I work at one of the greatest radio stations in America, WWL 870AM, as the General Sales Manager. I have been at the station for the past 27 years, and have been in radio since I was 16 years old. Started out on the air, and moved into sales in 1977.

We now have a club station for WWL 870AM, W5WWL. Our Trustee is Joe Pollet, W5ABC our chief engineer. Dominic Mitchum one of our other engineers, W5DGM is our VP, and I'm the President. .

I was first licensed in 1963 as WN5IDB, and held the calls of WA5LTF, and WB5GGX. My son, Jay, who lives in Middle River, Maryland just got his license and requested his OM's old call. He is now WB5GGX!!!

My rig consists of the Icom 7600, Drake L4B amplifier, and a Palstart AT2K tunerThe current antenna is a G5RV up about 45 feet with one leg at 20 feet at the end and the other a approximately 35 feet. It looks like on May 4, 2013 I will be finished with my towere and antenna project.  I'm putting up a 40 foot ROhn 25 G with an A3S with 40 meter add on kit, 6 element Cushcraft A50-6S, and a UHF/VHF beam.  I will have a Hazer on the tower so I can raise and lower the system if bad weather threatens. And believe me that happens a lot in Southern Louisiana. As soon as everything is up I will post pictures on this site.  Look out East coasters!!!!  HI HI

Just got active again in July of 2010, and in May 2012 got my DXCC, WAS, and WAC awards. I also enjoy checking into the CCN Nets of 40 and 75 meters. So far I have earned the 100 point and 500 point award for each of the bands on SSB. I think I'll go and get the CW one now. HI!!!

My QTH is 30 miles North of New Orleans, and I commute each day into the city across the longest over the water bridge in the world. The Lake Pontchartrain causeway is 24 miles over water. I guess I need a mobile HF to enjoy some early morning DX and late evening rag chewing.

When you hear me on the air give me a call.
