What a great hobby!
Amateur Radio has been my favorite hobby for many years!   I especially enjoy the opportunity to build meaningful friendships with other hams. 
 
I became a licensed ham in 1972 to facilitate telephone patch calls to my wife Pat from aboard ship in the Pacific during my 28 year Navy career.  I was fortunate to operate my own equipment , a Kenwood TS-520 and trap vertical antenna, from five Navy ships.
