Profile

I was first licensed in 2004 while living in NC. Several years later after moving to the Pacific Northwest, I upgraded to Extra and changed my 4-land callsign to K7TAY.

I enjoy providing communications during events such as the Eagle Cap Extreme Sled Dog race held annually in eastern Oregon. The multi-day event is an Iditarod qualifier that relies entirely on ham radio communications.

I also enjoy Summits on the Air (SOTA) with my husband, KK7DS. We were very active years ago and were likely catch us most weekends on 20m come rain, snow or sunshine. In December 2012, I flew 3000 miles back to my home state for a NC/TN summit that got me 23 points in a single activation!
