Greetings from Colorado, home of the buffalo and the heart of the American West.  My QTH sits immediately adjacent to the old Overland Trail stagecoach road which can still be seen on Google satellite shots.  The City of Fort Collins was founded in 1864 as a military outpost to protect travellers on the Overland Trail.

Due to neighborhood restrictions I'm currently limited at home for everyday operation to a hidden ground mounted vertical close to the house in the backyard.  During times of DXpedition desperation or for some contest weekends, I roll out a 50' Aluma TM-12 tower trailer with a customized portable Mosley MP-33 WARC or N6BT 30/40 rotatable dipole.  All my QSOs are via my station aluminum.

Alumnus of The Pennsylvania State University with Master's degree in Economics and Business Administration.

Respect the hobby and 73.
