I plan on getting some QSL cards printed shortly and should be able to reply in a timely fashion.
Quick Bio:

I'm 27 years old and my wife is Valeska. We've lived at our house in Hillsboro since June 2007 and previously lived in an apartment in Wilsonville, OR. Unfortunately my ability to have a decent amateur radio station was highly impaired in the apartment, but with the wonderful back yard (and no CCR/HOA to worry about) I've been able to get a few antennas put up to work the world.
Resources Located Here:

Unofficial OTVARC Newsletter Archive - I'm a member of the Oregon Tualatin Valley Amateur Radio Club and our club emails a monthly newsletter to all the members. Once an a while, a newsletter is posted to the club website, however I thought I would create an archive with more frequent updates. I usually have the lastest newsletter posted by the end of the month it was emailed (they are emailed at the beginning of the month).

melp_1400.dll (Zip Archive of melp_1400.dll and melp_dll.dll) [Original Source Code] - If you catch me on-the-air, it will be usually using one of the new digital modes created by N1SU. If you use DRMDV or the new FDMDV, you'll need the melp_1400.dll file and N1SU doesn't provide a compiled version. I provide both the melp_1400.dll and melp_dll.dll (for the regular WinDRM) for your convenience.

The Master List of Part 15 Radio Stations of North America - I didn't create this document, however since its original location is no longer functional, I have posted it to my site as a reference. It was last updated March 23, 2004, however has a couple of interesting tidbits.
Links:

No personal website wouldn't be complete without some links to other websites, so here are some of my favorites to visit!

Hello Radio - Curious what this amateur radio thing is anyhow? This is a website that was originally designed to celebrate 100 years of voice over radio, but still has great basic information about what amateur radio is.

Amateur Radio Relay League - This is the national association for amateur radio in the United States. I've been a member since I first received my amateur license in 2005.

QRZ & eHam - Two great social networking sites for amateur radio.

Part 15 Community Radio - Start your own broadcast radio station legally! It's a great website to check out for information about starting your own low power broadcast radio station.

Slashdot, Engadget & Joystiq - I start my day by visiting these three sites. Great sources for technology news and information.
