About the Rig and Cameras
My name is Bob Nolte KD7YOX. I'm a new ham(General). Ham radio has been on my "Bucket List" since I was a teen-ager 70 years ago in Minnesota. I live in Winterhaven in Sierra Vista,AZ, which is a HOA. I am just now starting my ham radio journey. I have a Chameleon SS17 whip antenna with an elevated radial. I have received the DX-100 award from QRZ. I believe God gave us Ham Radio and He, not the Devil, connected a computer to it.

Maybe the only live GridTracker view in the world! View it as long or as often as you wish.

Since FT8 is focused on distance, using WSJTx-Improved, I am blocking North American callsigns. Callsigns with no QRZ record are ignored.
Yellow lines are stations receiving my signal. Refreshed every 5 minutes.  Blue lines are other ham QSOs
