Hi All,
W4STB here.

I am a contester but I don't use 3830 and I don't operate in a lot of the 
contests.  The most recent contest I operated was CQWW RTTY and I plan to 
operate CQWW SSB later this month.

Please see my website at www.freewebs.com/w4stb.  My education and work 
background are listed there.

And if you have questions please feel free to e-mail them to me at 
w4stb at yahoo.com. (please put SE Division election in the subject so I can 
sort messages easier.

73, GUD DX and many multipliers
Sherri, W4STB
