Amateur Radio Station K6BCW based in San Francisco, California.
I have a very basic UHF/VHF setup with a few HTs, and a portable QRP HF rig. I like to go to local parks and hills to see who I can contact. You might find me on 10m SSB or FT8. I have constructed a speaker wire dipole and it works really well on 10m. As I've gotten my General class license, I've also been experimenting with other antenna designs so you may find me on other bands as well. I've managed to make DX contacts with only 5-10 watts. My goal is to contact as many states and countries as possible, taking advantage of the peak of Solar Cycle 25 while it lasts. I'm a member of the San Francisco Amateur Radio Club (SFARC), the California Historical Radio Society (CHRS), and, of course, the American Radio Relay League (ARRL). My brother is KR4AMW. He lives in Georgia, and I live in California, so you have one brother on each coast to try and contact.
I'm active on the WIN System Insomniac Trivia Net.
Formerly known as KO6BCW (September 2023 - June 2024).
I prefer LoTW, however I also have QRZ.com and e-QSL.
