Welcome to my  web! I guess I need to tell you a little about myself.

I had taken my Novice class test in December of 1979 and after waiting almost 6 weeks back then for the FCC to process and mail your ticket to you by snail mail HI HI . I received the call (KB4HQJ) in January of 1980. I held that call until I moved to Maryland  and upgraded to Technician class in 1984 with the call of (N3FRG). I had that call for many years, Moving back to the wonderful hills of Virginia I upgraded  to General Class at Bluefield, Va. (taken my 13wpm & 20wpm code) in 1989.

  Raising 4 kids and working all the time my Ham Radio hobby fell very low on the priority list, But still managed to work CW on the weekends and a field day from time to time. When I finely got around to take my advanced test I found out that it was no longer a class. In 2000 I upgraded to Extra class and applied for a vanity call and received the (WK4W)

  After almost 30 years of Ham Radio I still love CW and call it my main mode, But I also enjoy all the other modes as well. I like the Digital modes that has came about in the last 10 or so years and use them regular.

Hope to cu on the band soon
