Greetings from Central America:

We are Missionaries serving the Lord here in the country of Nicaragua which is said to be the 2nd or 3rd poorest country in all of the Americas. This is a country where you feel like you are needed and the national people are wonderful when you get to know them. We are a church plant ministry based out of Calvary Chapel of Costa Mesa, CA, USA which is a Bible believing and non-denominational Christian church.

Amateur radio is important to us because it helps us to stay in touch with family and friends in the USA and all over the world. We really appreciate it when we can make a QSO. Thank you for the Contact.

We get real busy here but when there is free time I like to operate CW on the HF bands. If you would like a QSL card, please send via my QSL manager W0MM - do not forget to include SASE if you want a direct response otherwise it will be sent via bureau.

EX: call signs: YN4MG, 9G5MG. My USA call sign: WK6O.

Other Amatuer operator at this station is David Budgen YN3BSL.

And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go thereforeand make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen. Mathew 28:18-20
