My Ham Radio Story Part III - 2/2/14

Well I'm back at school now. Winter break was awesome. Chasing DX is an amazing way to learn about cultures, geography, and propagation. I am currently off the air with HF until next month at least. In my time on the air I have been discussing different topics with hams on Facebook and am now an admin for a buy/sell group found here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/718172524862444/. If I have the time to study, I will try to test for my Extra this month. This would greatly improve my chances for DX, as evening and night DX is usually in the Extra band, not to mention I have yet to contact Asia or Oceania. Once I have them, I will have WAC. I hope to get my home station setup for remote control over the next couple of months. This requires a couple more pieces of equipment and a grounding/lightning protection system since it will be largely unattended. As of today, my logbook amounts to 50 entries with about 15 confirmed. Of the 15, there are 13 different confirmed DXCCs. Well on my way to DXCC! Keep in mind, I did that in 2 weeks. Can't wait to see what I can do over the summer!
