W3ML

Hello and welcome to my site.

I have been an Amateur Radio operator since 1979 and still enjoy working new people and countries. My goal is the DXCC Honor Roll before I become an SK. Maybe I will make it yet.

Amateur Radio Operating Activities: DXCC; active DX chaser; HF contester; active in public service communications; and an early packet radio user; enjoy BPSK 31 and RTTY.

I am working on my 5-Band DXCC and need about 100 more confirmed QSOs to fiull out the 40 and 17 meter bands. Also, getting close to that 300 confirmed and hope to have that soon.

Contact me at e-mail: w3ml@w3ml.com.

Since putting up a tri-bander and purchasing the Yaesu FT 2000D I have worked more DX than before those two were bought. I enjoy the radio very much as it has the ability to filter out more noise than the other radios I own. The 200 watts help out too. One thing for sure is you must read the manual to know how to set everything up.

Below is a shot of my operating desk. In the center of the lower part is the new Yaesu FT-2000D, the FT-101-ZD and the FC-301 tuner. Above those is the FT-840 and the computer interfaces on the left.

Not shown in this picture is the new Kenwood TS-2000 that I purchased at Dayton 2011. Even tough it is hardly used, mostly on 2 and 6 meters, it is like new. Not many hours on it. I bet it has been used only a couple of hours at the most.

County Hunters

I live in Starke County in Indiana. It is a small county with very few hams active on HF. County hunters contact me via email and we can set up a schedule, if you need Starke County.

You can email me at w3ml@w3ml.com if you want a schedule with me or have a question. I am always available for help when it comes to Ham Radio.
