New Callsign W6AKB

Saturday, August 6th, 2011

Yesterday I was granted callsign W6AKB. It is going to be difficult to stop using WB6ZQZ which I have used for a very long time. The new callsign is a bit quicker and easier to understand over the air in noisy conditions, shorter on CW and it is my initials so I should be able to remember it!

Soon I’ll have a separate website at www.w6akb.com for ham radio stuff.

Yesterday I fabricated a neat new jig to make it easier and more precise to drill pressure chambers. Always looking for improvements. Over the past week I also made some improved software for organizing orders, received another batch of PVC for parts and we shipped a bunch of launchers, but there is still a backlog that we are working on.

Thanks for your support!
