I am an Amateur
Radio Operator and received my first license in 1964 at the age of
16. My call letters were WA5KUB until Jan 2008 when I changed them to W5KUB
(dropping the A). I hold an amateur extra class license and
over the years I have talked to about 100 different countries around the
world. I operate many different modes such as AM, FM, Single Side Band,
Morse Code, Radio Teletype, Packet, and Amateur TV. I operate on HF, VHF,
and UHF bands and build and experiment with microwave and satellite systems.
I even participated in an experiment with
NASA several years ago where amateur radio operators communicated with
the space shuttle STS-9 on VHF frequencies. I also hold a Federal Communications
Commission First Class License with Radar endorsement.
