2002-present W5WVO (Extra), Rio Rancho, NM (near Albuquerque)
Current interests:
SIX METERS! Completed ARRL's 6m WAS in 2008 by finally working KL7NO in Fairbanks. In the summer of 2009, I was awarded 6m Certificate #1 for being the first to complete the Northern California Contest Club's Worked All California Counties (WACC) award on 6 meters. In the summer of 2010, I worked my 100th EM grid (EM97) in the ARRL June VHF contest and claimed the Southeast VHF Society's Worked All of 'EM award #14.
Still working on:
VUCC, 6 meters, currently at the 575 endorsement level, 582 worked
FFMA (ARRL 6-meter award for working all 488 grids in the contiguous 48 states), currently at 479 confirmed, 9 to go
I work 6m SSB and CW during the sporadic-E season. At other times of the year or whenever 6m is dead, you can find me "on the rocks" (WSJT FSK441) for 6m meteor-scatter work, if I'm not on HF.
HF CW DXing: Just getting back into this after many years absent from the HF bands. Active on CW 40m, 30m, 20m, 17m, and 15m.
VHF CONTESTING: Just a quasi-serious contester — don't have the station or the endurance for real top-level competition.
ANTENNAS: Computer modeling, building, documenting, etc.
QSL INFO:
All 6 meters & domestic HF: Please QSL direct or via LOTW. SASE appreciated with direct QSLs, thanks.
DX HF: QSL direct, via LOTW, or via the bureau.
Sorry, NO eQSL.
