First Call: KA8ZFF issued in 1986       Other Call(s):

Returned to ham radio after 19 years of inactivity due to flying a piper 140 and building and flying an ultra light airplane. A while back I added a Yaesu 991A which allowed me to use 2 meter & 440 bands, as well as six meters and the Hf bands. Slowly working the parks on the air contacts. I put up a new 13b2 beam for local repeater and simplex contacts. I own and ride a Honda Goldwing as well as a 250 cc scooter.

Special thanks to my Elmer "Rog" NF8A for helping me get into the hobby back in the mid 1980's. Current Radio's include a Icom 251A, a Yaesu 757, An Icom W2a dual band Ht, a Yaesu Ftm 100dr dual band mobile rig, a TYT Th-9000d 220 Rig, a Tyt 380 Dmr hand held, and 6-8 months ago a New Yaesu 991A. I am working 2 meter side band, Fusion, and HF as my experience grows.

73 my Hamy Brothers. Dennis N8hmk
