GREETINGS
!
I am
2 Many years old and retired. Originally
licensed back in the 80's as a Novice,
WD8PDU, and I worked strictly CW QRP. I
soon built up the speed, studied hard
and moved to Advanced Class. For some
reason (don't know why), I lost
interest, moved, lost my wallet (and
consequently my license) while horseback
riding and didn't file for a new one,
let it expire and didn't renew (again I
don't know why), I got old and finally
dumped all the kids on the economy.
Speaking of the kids, I have three great
kids and 8 grandchildren and 3 great
grandkids now. My oldest daughter is an
RN, my son (George III) is a retired
USAF Master Sergeant after over 20
years' service, and my baby girl is also
an RN. (I also have a Granddaughter who
is an RN)
My wife of 48 years actually likes my
hobby because it keeps me out of her
hair while she plays on her computer or
pursues her hobbies as well.
Anyway, after a hiatus of several years,
I decided to get my license again. I
retested and was licensed as a Tech
(KI4FZQ). After a couple of months I
upgraded to General
and then to Extra. After a severe tongue
sprain when calling “CQ this is KI4FZQ”,
I took the vanity call K4PDU and then
changed again to N2GWK (N2 for Jr. and
GWK, my initials)
