First licensed in 1972 as WN7UNW. Other callsigns were WB7SQR, KI4IIC, and WA7UNW. My HF station is an Elecraft K3/100, Kenwood TS-430S, SB-220 amp, and DX-88 vertical. I enjoy building things, and built a K2 and other test equipment to align it. Currently working on a SB-220 amplifier, building a 6M amp out of an SB-200 shell using a GI-7B tube, transmitters and APRS/GPS for rockets, solid state 600W amplifier, some digital projects, restoring a Hammarlund HQ-170 receiver, etc. Active in ARRL as ARRL-VE.

CW is my favorite mode, but I haven't been operating too much lately. Too busy building things...

We are foster parents, and that keeps us plenty busy.
