Been so long since I added or removed anything from my webpage I figured I
had better get going. This page will be under construction for a while until I
can remember how to add and delete all these pictures and put some new ones in.
Thanks for stopping by and hope to see you again soon.
Before I go I have been doing some reminiscing about my early days of amateur
radio. As a teen I operated a high school club station at Selkirk High School in
Thunder Bay, Ontario and used the station of VE3SEC. At lunch I would sit in
front of the heathkit twins (before we got our FT101ZD) and at lunch would work
Blackie W6HLH (W 6 Honolulu Luxembourg Honolulu from San Francisco California).
Man does anyone remember this guy or have a QSL from him? I think he is now a SK
and his call has been re-issued but I remember daily he was the loudest and
strongest on 20 meters on our 3 element tri-bander.
Hello and welcome to my homepage, thanks for stopping in. My name is Fred
Lesnick, my amateur radio callsign is VE3FAL, and I live in Thunder Bay,
Ontario. My grid square is EN58hh.
Radio has been a hobby of mine for many years, and every hour that I spend
playing radio is rewarding. My favorite digital mode is C.W. (Morse code) , yes,
C.W.. Some of the other modes I enjoy are:
I hold the callsign for
the Little Thunder QRP Club here in Thunder Bay. A few fellow amateurs who enjoy
the art of QRP and homebrewing created the club. We are a no bylaws or dues
collecting club, we simply meet to talk about various aspects of the QRP hobby.
So listen for the club call on the air, and hope to work you soon. The Little
Thunder QRP Club now holds the FISTS # 10325, so will be using that from time
time in the contests.
VA3SBB 10 Meter Propagation Beacon (No longer in
service)
However the new call sign of
VE3SEC is now being used by myself for my 10 meter propagation testing from
Thunder Bay Ontario EN58hh. If you hear VE3SEC on 28.241 please do not hesitate
to send your report to.
