N9LTV Rod L. Sievers Carterville, IL QCWA # 37004

First licensed in 1991. I've earned DXCC, WAS and WAC. DXCC total is more than 200. QTH is Carterville, IL, about 100 miles southeast of St. Louis.

My main rig is a Kenwood TS-570D(G). I also use the Elecraft K-1, SN 1450, which is a great QRP rig. Antennas include a Butternut vertical along with several single-band dipoles.

I mostly operate CW with a little SSB thrown in once in a while. I also dabble in PSK-31, RTTY and SSTV.
