I first got into the hobby about 14 years ago. I never had a serious setup until about 2002.

I have a moderately long history of how I got into the hobby and some memories on my website which you can find at Extreme Radio. The history is under the section "Extreme Radio".

I am sure I have QSL'ed with some of you on the band, and hope to catch more of you on the radio.

I heard DX booming on my radio today, but I was in the living room working on websites and didn't get over to the mic to key up. When I was getting ready for work I flipped over to 6am and heard all the big stations out there keying over each other sounding like preachers, and I couldn't not for the life of me make out what any of them were saying. Although, one day several weeks ago one was having a conversation with someone in central massachusetts, yet I heard no one around the area keying up... kinda makes ya wonder if sometimes they are having pseudo conversations with themselves.
