ABOUT THIS

This blog is about my activities on amateur radio from my retirement location in Qulin, MO. I am active on 80m thru 6m (with the exception of 60m) with 95+% utilizing the digital FT4 and FT8 modes (FTx)
I upload to LoTW and Club Log at the end of every session on the air. I QSL 100% for all non-W/VE QSO's via the bureau - which I do once a year. W/VE are replied to direct - NO SASE required but appreciated. I do not upload to eQSL or QRZ.com

POTA Stats

Quick Update 7/6/2025

 Just a quick bit of information this Sunday morning...

1) I think I will work on POTA this week.

2) I should get my WAS endorsements this week (I hope).

3) Sitting at 207 confirmed with paper QSL's included.  I plan on getting a M2 loop antenna next year and have that ready to go for next year's Es season.  

4) The next purchase (in the early fall) is an 80m hamstick that will be resonant on the FT8 frequency.  I want that 5BWAS very, very badly.
