finally...

WE GOT A HOUSE!!! :0)
Yes, it's true. We've searched and planned, prayed and stressed and it's finally happened! All the paperwork is making its way through the process this week. We'll be updating more shortly, but we wanted to blog quickly and share our wonderful news. Pics to come soon...

restarting a hobby

A few years ago I (Bernard) got into amateur radio (also know as Ham radio), then life got busy and I put the hobby aside. So a few months back I decided to try and get back into it and get licensed in the US. Since then I have been studying US regulations and radio electronics. I finally took the test and passed. So now I am licensed in the US with the call sign KD0DVO.
The things that attracted me to this hobby is that it would allow me to communicate with people anywhere in the world or from anywhere in the world, many people involved with amateur radio are also very involved with public service, and many people have combined amateur radio with computers. All three of these reasons are really attractive to me and a whole new world of experimenting and learning has opened up for me.
