HI
I' a not a new member, but I been a member for years now. I first join in Feb 1970. In May 2005 I retired after working 35 1/2 years at the Social Security Adm here in Baltimore, MD. I have began my radio hobby with the AM broadcast band in Dec 1967. This would lead to swl, utility stations in cw, rtty, fax, police band scanner dx, ham radio. I got my notice amateur caLL sign KA3TCC in May 1988. My good friend Dion Blevins got KA3TCB. I got my extra class now & go on amateur tv repeater, and the other hf ham bands. I enjoy the hobby very much. I was home on sick leave the right time and date to get very much luck on the 6 meter f2 skip opening in Nov 1999-Mar 2001 and got lots of grid zones on 6 meters. I have over 340 grids qsl'ed. I got to find time to file for the VUCC. My newest thing is my web page. I did it on my Apple Mac Powebook in iWeb09. Check it out; it is a lot of tv dx id's from my years in the hobby.Check it at http://web.me.com/nomorework/DID_YOU_GET_THIS_ID/WELCOME.html Since I have retired in 2005 my health has gone south slow with Parkinson or PD . I have the most hard time waking and my voice studder alot. I have talk slow so you can understand what I am saying. 73s
