I have enjoyed this hobby over the past several years. I most enjoy collecting old time tube radios. Some of my stations are the Collins 32V/2 transmitter with the 75A-3 receiver for AM, KWS-1 transmitter with the 75A-4 receiver(Gold Dust Twins) for AM and SSB, and KWM-2A transceiver with the 312B5 external VFO and 30L amplifier for SSB. I also have the Collins 51S-1 receiver.
My current station is the Icom 746pro transceiver with the Ameritron AL-80B amplifier.
I am active in several amateur radio groups, Some of them are the Collins Collectors Association, OBARC, GSARA, HCARC, ECARS, SCARS and the 7272 rag chew.
The modes I work are SSB, AM, CW, RTTY, and PSK31.
My other hobbys are boating and fishing.
