My Name Is "Geno" (Short for Eugene) My Ole-Timer Call-Sign Was --- W0NYY --- I First Got Started In Radio Communications Back In 1952 With The U.S. Army As A CW Radio Operator In Europe.. I Went Thru The Morse Code Training School At Ft. Devens, Mass. Then On To Europe.. After My Military Duty I Went To Seattle And There I Met My "Elmer aka Smokey K5kdk now a Silent Key" Who Taught Me The In's & Out's of Amateur Radio.. After Spending A Couple Of Years Around Saigon And Points North I Returned To MY Roots At Detroit Lakes & Got My W0 Call-Sign...
I Picked Up My Extra Class & 2nd Class Radio Telegraph Licences Back When The FCC Changed The Licensing Format In About 68.. My Primary Interest Over The Years Has Been -- DX-ing --
Back In The Mid 70's I Had A Rohn 25 150 Ft Tower With Hygain 204ba Antennas. Stacked 4-over-4 Monobanders on 20 Mtrs. With Both Antennas Rotating Independantly... And A Rohn 25 120 Ft Tower With a Hygain TH6DX 6 Element ThunderBird Antenna..
Of Course Everyone Had Some Kind of Wire Array For The **Low Bands** 80 & 160 meters... Those Were Known As "" The Good ole Days ! ! ! ""... But Come 2005 All Good Things Must End As Old Age Made Its Where-Abouts Known And I Could NO LONGER Crawl The Heights For Routine Maintainance...!!!
