Ham Radio - Richard KI7KJ

Kilo India Seven Kilo Juliett using the ITU Phonetic Alphabet.

I have an Advanced Class amateur radio license, which I love, as it is no longer issued but I am grandfathered in. I had to pass a 13wpm code test to get it (back in the day).

Former call back in California N6MPP. Hams that I knew back there: Billy N6NLE, Randy KN6W, Don NA6Z. Years earlier I had a novice call but I have forgotten what it was. Might've even been a Tech there at one point. I remember helping my friend B.A. WB0FVK build a helical vertical when we lived in Boulder.  At KBCS, Sam N7FDU is a ham.

I sold my old Icom IC-02AT 2m handheld, so now I am rigless.  Truth is, I like reading about ham radio more than doing it. :-)
