I became WN5BDU in January, 1962 at age 13, so now I've been at it 50 years!  My first shack was the storeroom of my Dad's tavern in the tiny town of Subiaco, Arkansas.

I mainly work CW but will venture into voice and data modes occasionally.  Ham interests include DX (a little), contesting, QRP, homebrewing, boatanchors ...

I belong to the ARRL and support diversity of interests in amateur radio.  There's room for everyone!
