Thank you for visiting my website.  I thoroughly enjoyed operating as N6QEK/VY1 from Whitehorse during the American Radio Relay League RTTY Round Up in 2010.    I have already started planning  to return to Whitehorse in 2011 for the RTTY Round Up.  I intend to operate the days prior to and after the contest on telephony (SSB), RTTY and PSK 31.  During the year (2010), I will see about getting my CW back up to speed and try to get some contacts in the log using Morse code.  I will be on 80 through 10 meters, includng the WARC bands.

I would like to thank DX Engineering for their technical support for the 2010 edition of my DXpedition.  Their technical expertise was very valuable as I was designing an antenna system that would transmit a strong signal from Whitehorse.

It is incredibly beautiful in the Yukon with the crisp, blue skies during the day and while I was there, an amazing bright full moon at night.  The stars and the Milky Way are something else from that latitude and I was very fortunate to see the Northern Lights on the evening of 3 January at about 10:30 PM (0630 UTC).  I only saw them that one night and I am very glad I did.  The Northern Lights are eerie and at the same time spectacular to view.


73 and good DX!
