My name is Dennis MØMMX and gained my call in 2010 (hence MMX).

I do not have a long history in radio having started when nearly sixty years old, I did however, have a short spell playing CB in the AM days (I was a country music guitarist and truck salesman, it fitted the lifestyle).

From the outset my objective was to learn CW and this has become my passion. In the few short years since I struggled to learn the basics I have made so many friends both on air and at meetings, I can think of no other hobby that can be so mentally stimulating and cost effective.

My shack is basic and situated in the front room of the house --- my rig is an Icom 7300 and antenna is a doublet, half indoors and the other half exiting the bathroom window to a convenient tree stump. I have also built a Mag Loop---click Antenna page on the menu.

I am not a collector of keys but I have some which are pictured on the "key" page, my favourites are my Vibroplex Lightening, Junkers straight key together with the beautiful Begali Classic.

With my modest gear I have had many hours of fun and experienced many adrenalin rushes, all in the safety of the home.

I also love reading amateur radio news, here are some links to today's items:-
