Been a ham since early 1993, Love the hobby it's no wonder they call it the greatest of all. I love to chase dx and although a do most modes by far the digi-modes are my favorites especially psk-63. I live in Labrador West CQ ZONE 2 and over the years I've helped many hams achieve WAZ. Sorry to disappoint folks but after much thought I have decided not to respond to any more qsl's via the buro, (I will however qsl via direct with 1 IRC or 2 green stamps (not 1 USD) for international & US postage) and E-QSL only. The Canadian postal services do not honor foreign stamps.

I worked for 30 yrs as a tradesman here for a large mining company, retired in 2003 and went to work as an instructor for a local college in 2004, a great place to work and I get all summer to ride my motorcycles and play radio mostly from VO1'Land this year I'll be using VO1III in memory of a dear ham friend Daniel NadreauVE2III.

Some of the gear I use, a FT100mp Ic-706 for mobile use, as much as I like these rigs my favorite has to be the Elecraft K-2, fantastic little rig.

The photo an Inukshuk I made on a mountain east of Labrador City I call it "Enjoying the View". I snowshoed there, a long hard walk but the view at the end was well worth the climb.

Hope to catch you on the bands sometime.
