Trinity Site is where in 1945 the Army set off an Atomic Bomb. 60 years later in 2005 a group of Hams set up 3 radio sites for a special interest one day operation. I'm working 40 meter QRP CW and a German TV group were photographing me at 70 years old talking to other Hams. They were there for over 10 minutes I think because I had shade and the temperature was 102F.
I have been a ham for 55 years and enjoy QRP and the "ART" of QRP very much. It's fun to talk with a station 5,000 miles away. It's a thrill to do the same thing with only 5 watts of transmitter power. I enjoy CW and the Fox Hunts.
I have an antenna farm consisting of a Butternut 40 meter vertical and the High Gain TH6-DXX beam on a 60 foot self supporting tower. To see this picture Click on the word FARM below.

The QRP "To The Field" contest
was fun considering only 20 meters was open. Took several pictures of
the event. Click ttf to get there. My mis-understanding of tuner losses
caused me to make this Tuner Page where you can see what I have been
doing. Click on tuner.
