Great to meet you Ed. are you active on the air these days....whats your
primary activity (rag chew, contesting etc.)?

I mostly like to chase DX and do contesting.

Station here: Yaesu FT-1000MP, Ten-Tec Centurion through a Tennadyne T-10
Log periodic {at} about 65' I also use a homebrew Alpha-Delta Style DXCC for
40M & 80M.

I have a Yaesu FT-767DEX fully loaded that I also use for 6M UHF, VHF all
mode work as well as for the local repeaters. I have a small tribander yagi
for 6,2,& 70cm.

Mobile is an Icom IC-706MKIIG with a KJ7U Screwdriver.

I'm using Ham radio Deluxe (registered) for Rig control & Logging. I
used to use TRX Manager and Logic 8 but Logic was a pain....It was always
crashing. TRX Manager was great although I wanted a program that had both
built in and HRD works great. As well as keeping LOTW updated and all my
QSl's and Rotor control too, so really good.

Anyhow, Glad you got back to me, I really wanted to test out some of these
echomail areas from my BBS that I just got up and running again last year.
