Amateur Radio Public Service

Pictures from the real action


TJ (my son, N7NDE) and I did a lot of Public Service which I kept doing after his death. Public Service can be a lot of fun and I hope to put up more pictures of it. Amateur Radio public service can be even better since you get right down and into the action. I've not done it in over a year because it's hard for me to stand for any length of time right now.


Motorcycle Mobile

My favorite transportation for public service was my Goldwing motorcycle. Unfortunately, I had to get rid of it after a hospitalization left my foot so swollen I couldn't operate the gear shift.

There just isn't time to do a proper disposal during the race, but it will have to be cleaned up before we close the station

Almost over!
