Welcome to my web site!

Although I enjoy many facets in Amateur Radio, there are two areas that stand out - Public service, particularly through ARES / NTS, and Contesting. On the ARES link to the left, I'll provide a little background, and also some links to pages already dedicated to these very worthwhile activities. The bulk of this site will lean much more heavily toward the competitive side. 

I live just northeast of Monroe, Louisiana, in the Swartz community. Louisiana has Parishes rather than counties, and mine is Ouachita (pronounced WASH-i tah). My property (1 acre) sits at 90'ASL. I am in grid EM32xn, CQ zone 4, ITU zone 7.

I really enjoy running single op, however, in the past couple of years, Scott, W5WZ and I have teamed several times. Some of our efforts can be found on the "Results" page. 

Please feel free to look around, and drop me a note if you have any questions or comments. Email link available at bottom of every page.

Thanks for stopping by!

Mark, K5ER
