Male

I`m 66 years old and retired from the E.J.& E. railway kirk yard gary indiana where i was a switchman in engine service and amateur radio is not just a hobby for me it`s a way of life or a lifestyle.I work many contests and am an avid contester and have my logbook on line and its searchable from several of my websites and from my qrz.com bio page Link: http://www.qrz.com/db/KB9YGD.I also use arrl LOTW and Eqsl and qsl direct or via the 9th district buro.

I live in lake station indiana and have several websites such as my familys website and several ham websites and these can all be accessed via my links page on my family`s website or via inputting my callsign in the qrz.com database.I also use facebook,twitter,photobucket and many others.
