First eWAS certificate received!

I received my first certificate yesterday!  Completed eWAS on 20m.  Idaho was the hold-out state, and thanks to KF7GMV for completing my collection!

Here's a better, more interactive graphic for my last 200 or so QSOs.  I love Google Maps.

Latest QSO map - including new Asia & Island nation contacts

I recently have made a number of QSOs in China, Japan & little places like New Caledonia and the Azores.  Here is my latest QSO map...

Longest wordwide contact to date, made... today

Scanning the 20m band for possible QSOs, I saw a callsign that I didn't recognize - ZS6WR.

The signal was pretty strong. The band was behaving noticeably well today, but I didn't realize how well until I looked this station up.

It was from Geoff, a ham located just outside of JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA.

Here is the link for his ham radio club:

Distance for this contact - 10,242 miles.

It's official, I can reach around the world with this ham shack!

For more information on the contact, check my radio log:

Just awesome. Geoff made my day.

Moving in to the new shack!

Check out the new ham shack! This sure beats huddling by a space heater out in the garage!

Also in the picture is my supervisor Roscoe.
