DXCC on 17m/12m

My very good friend, George (W0LMN), has completed his 17m 100 DXCC in only a few months. Click anywhere here for his web-site which will show you an up-to-the-minute live update of his log.

He is now working towards 100 DXCC on 12m!

He is an inspiration to me and other hams who know him

Good luck George… cookies are on me!!!!!

What do you want to accomplish with your blog?

Hmmm. Such an easy question but also a hard one. Personally, as my blog description says, “a YL with a soft spot for Westlife and NASCAR”.

YL – is the term given to all females (young or old) in ham radio.
Westlife – if you know me, then you know who Westlife are. If you don’t, go check my videos on YouTube and FlickR or do a Google search!
NASCAR – again, if you know me you know what the fuss is about! If not, go check out NASCAR and if you’re in the UK and have Premier Sports (Sky 433) check it out!

The point of my blog is to post things that interest me and that I hope will interest others whether specifically looking for something or who just happen to come across my blog.

A little bit of ham radio, a little bit of NASCAR, a little bit of Westlife and a whole mix of other stuff
