HI, Since I always enjoy communicating with my brothers/sisters/etc. in UK (and being Irish/English), I thought it would be fine business to join the Charlie Tangos!! Retired from US Space Shuttle Program in 2010 (enjoying retirement with my wife of 53 yrs.) and put my radio station back in action with the uptick of the latest cycle (my 4th). Took a lot of physical work as several hurricanes (and the little tornados inside them) had decimated most of my vertical/yagi and Rhombic long wire antennas....but am now back on the air on 11 meters and ham radio (licensed since 2000)... and once again enjoying contacts around the world! Anyway, looking forward to participating and enjoying this group.
