Any other ham radio operators here?

Post by ab4ka »

I was licensed in 1987 as KC4BUE, then a few months later I was KM4DM for five minutes (by the time I got my advanced license in the mail I had already passed my extra exam), then right after that I got AB4KA. I was pretty active for a few years then moved to a place where I had no place for a station and moved on to other things (like guns :lol: )

About a year ago the bug bit me again hard and I was able to trade into some used equipment, most of which I sold and bought a couple of new things. Having as much fun as I ever did!

So...we got any other hams onboard?

The tag on my pickup is W4NKR, with no reference to ham radio. I was at a stoplight and saw a guy's license plate frame that said "HAM RADIO OPERATOR W4NKR" or something similar. I laughed and told him to look at my tag. What're the odds of that?

Yeah, have my extra ticket.
Haven't been on in over a year, just too much work right now. Although I should get back on later this summer, with summer, of course, being the worse time of the year.
