New Kid on the Blog

Hello All,

My name is James, AA5AO and my QTH is Abilene, Texas.

My current station consisit of a Heathkin HW-8, MFJ tuner, and a 1/2 square for 20 meters.

I am looking for the artwork for the NESCAF since the kits are not in production. If it can be supplied, I would greatly appreciate it.

While I am not on the radio, I am chasing after a couple of boys with ADHD, a Wife, a Mother-in-Law in the nursing home, and a Nursing Career.

Thanks for the read,

Moving to Texas without DOD

This is it, guys and gals. We bought a house at 7726 Jim Wells Drive, Corpus Christi, TX 78413, where I can do QRP with the full size antennas. My 40M Mizuho 250mW rig will now get the workout it deserves. Good flat topography as far as the eye can see in all directions. Initially I will focus 144.20 efforts to the east with 200mW.

This ought to be fun; nothing at all like the one-legged hooker on Sheridan Road in North Chicago outside Mary's Tailors I saw on occasion. The Mizuho rig only operates from 7.00 to 7.03 MHz. The two meter rig is a Mizuho MX-2 with Xtals for 144.15 through 144.25.

Back in New England

My wife and I have returned HOME to Mass. and enjoyed the past winter...(!) I have a small station set up and have been working on the code; also joined the NAQCC group and have tried to catch them on the air also, on Sunday nights. It's great to be back and I'll be on the air soon. 73 de kg4uqa, bob.c

Hardy--Hare, Hare, Hare

Hardy…Hare, Hare, Hare!

Our recent visit to the ARRL League Headquarters in Newington, Conn. was nothing less than spectacular and our host and co-host were above and beyond the call of duty. Both Ed Hare – W1RFI and Bob Allison – WB1GCM made all QRP members who made the trek to Newington and in the conference room to feel right at home. The levity and bantering back and forth was second to none and as some called said, it was the “Ed and Dennis show!” Playful conversation directed by Ed Hare put the membership at ease and lead most of the technical discussions with high energy plus top-notch information. When Bob Allison was introduced, it was either Doctor Strange Love or Veterinarian Allison for his white smock preceded his affectation of accomplishments. The membership was “warmed up” and ready!

The Big Fun

I had a hoot meeting y'all today in Newington.

THANK YOU one and all!
