My main interests are DXing and contesting.  Or maybe it's contesting and DXing.  Still not too sure of that after 53 years on the air.

I have been a CW guy for most of those years.  About four years ago I developed an interest in RTTY and RTTY contesting.  Last Spring I developed an interest in six meters when I figured out that I have a 6 meter antenna and amplifier and was only missing a transceiver to get on six.  So, I bought one and am learning to enjoy the "magic band".  About 198 grid squares and 31 DXCC entities so far.

I'll get on SSB for a DX entity I need or for an occasional contest.  But mostly you will find me on the low end of the HF bands working DX.
