Licensed in 1966 and active since then.
Did CW for the first 12 months and never again until I got interested in QRP a few years ago and I have a difficult time getting back to speed. Sending is fine but copying is the problem.
Over the years I have been operating with AM, SSB, RTTY, SSTV, PSK31 and lately tried FT8.
FT8 is not my cup of tea, I guess each its own. I am now also active on C4FM (Wires X) and you can find me on American-RC in the eveing and YSF-France in the morning.
My favored activity is CW QRP despite it is a struggle but I love it.
Antenna is now a 64ft MyAntennas EFHW 4010 as a sloper with the feeedpoint at 26ft.
We moved from Phoenix as AE7YD to San Diego in November 2008. Became NU6I. Moved to Prescott, AZ in April 2019 and again AE7YD. We love it here. I am now retired since January 2019 which gives me plenty of time to play with the radio.
If you hear me on the bands please QRS.
