Pictures for the year 1999.
Thumb
This is Soyhan, TA2IJ, and his lovely friend Esin. No wonder we hear him on the air so seldom lately.
Thumb
Bert, PA1KW - look at the amp and know that's the right suffix.
Thumb
Arie, 4X6UO - "Listen, take my advice"
Thumb
Here's my friend Bob, G0DOB, pretending he has a better shack than reality. Your friend's callsign gives it away, Bob.
Thumb
The virus hit some of us really hard.
Thumb
Ahmed, CN8GI and his beautiful family in historic costumes
Thumb
Denver, 4S7DA
Thumb
Greiss, SU1GS - "making another dx'er happy from zone 34"
Thumb
Ernest, 4S7EA, and Chandra - "just waiting for the kettle."
Thumb
Rob, 5Z4RL and his lovely family. "salaams to East Africa"
Thumb
Pete, G0WUA - "Wierd Uncle Al."
Thumb
from zone 19 here is UA0JV and wife, Val, RA0JCZ
Thumb
Tola, 5N9KWO - "Hola, Tola, que pasa?"
Thumb
Kevin, EI7IM - My favorite Leprechaun.
Thumb
You can meet this lovely couple, Bert PA1KW, and his wife Sonja, by just flying into the Amsterdam airport.
Thumb
Rob, 5Z4RL - defying "Walt's Law" that no one jumps from perfectly good aircraft.
Thumb
Graham, G4YRU with My "Maid Marion" Sandy, M5AAS.
Thumb
here's the first "lady in waiting," Jean M0CLL and her OM Paul M0BNT
Thumb
just another gorgeous smile from Jean, M0CLL with her daughter Emma - which one is Mom?
Thumb
M0BYA - sending more pictures won't get me to change this one, Bob!
Pictures for the year 2000.
Thumb
Selim, TA2DS - the little astronaut was "down to earth" for this one.
Thumb
This is Mick, M0ARX, who always has a nice mobile signal. Is there something magic about being in Greenwich?
Thumb
My friend, Salah, 9K2SH, and his son Jarrah. He wanted his picture up beside his friend Soyhan, but I have to put him with this year's postings.
Thumb
This picture, taken at Freidrichshafen, shows Ahmad, 9K2AI, Hamid, 9K2HS, and Selim, TA2DS
Thumb
This is another of the good, young operators active from the middle east, Osama, 9K2OD. You can find him on the bands just about every day.
Thumb
The first OD5 QSO for most new dx-ers comes from one of these two operators. Show here are Puzant, OD5NH, and Gaby, OD5NJ, during the OD5RAL IOTA operation in September, 1999.
Thumb
This is Mario, 9H1QB, in a photo taken a few (many, many) years ago.
Thumb
And, this is Mario, 9H1QB, hoping the car will take your attention AWAY from him.
Thumb
This is the picture that Mario DID NOT want you to see. Like all of us older folk, Mario is catching a quick nap between QSO's at 9H4B. We could hear you snoring, Mario!
Thumb
This, too, is Natasha, UA3XHG, just waiting for a chance to use the radio. Serge is always on the radio, but we'd rather talk to Natasha!
Thumb
Natasha, UA3XHG, who makes a wonderful reason to travel to Russia. I love this picture of a really darling girl.
Thumb
Serge, UA3XDS, and Tasha, UA3XHG. She's the only reason that you get to see this picture of Serge.
Thumb
Everyone knows that all brides are beautiful, but here is one of the most beautiful brides of this Century, Maha, CN8YG, with her new husband Rabii on their wedding day, April 15, 2000. My wife and I and all of our amateur friends join in wishing them health, happiness, prosperity, and joy in their new life together.
Thumb
Alex, DL4EEC, is certainly a daring soul. He sent this picture, not realizing that all of us "old" guys would make fun of his youth. My goodness, I don't remember ever being this young!
Thumb
In the battle of big signals, I told Mohamed that although I love him like a brother, my money is on this guy, Abdullah, 9K2GS...BIG SIGNAL!!!
Thumb
Abubaker, 5A1A, a kind and gentle soul, making so many happy with a new one on both SSB and CW.
Thumb
Hey, Guys! At last, here's a picture of 'DWQ that you can REALLY enjoy. This is my friend Maria - SV2DWQ from Thessaloniki. Be sure to give her a call when you hear her on the bands.
Thumb
This is Jemal, 9K2ZM, also known as A45ZM, OD5DX, SU1JR, DL2BBD, and, most important of all, 9K2ZM/W5. Let me know as soon as the new house is done down in Texas, Jemal, and we'll be happy to "house sit" for you.
Thumb
Here is Maria, SV2DWQ, testing the theory that 'blondes have more fun.' I don't know about that, but she is a beautiful lady even if her hair were purple.
Thumb
Here's Nick, SV2DWZ. By the call, you might guess that Nick is married to Maria, and he won't tell if blondes have more fun, either!
Thumb
Here is Amir, 4X6TT, at the mobile rig. Always a wonderful signal - at least in Maine - from home or the mobile. Amir, send me your cards and I'll send you mine!
Thumb
Don, HS0ZBG, and the woman who was the answer to his prayers, his wife Gail
Thumb
Shown here, front row left, is Tex, VK1TX, surrounded by the reason he no longer has a reputation. Hanging out with this crowd would blacken anyone's image.
Thumb
This beautiful gal is Rocsana, YO8SWW, my very good, dx friend, letting us know why it is sometimes difficult to catch her on the band.
Thumb
In a bit of wishful thinking, Owen, SM3CWE, claims that this looks like ME!!! Only in your dreams, Owen, I'm the distinguished looking one
Thumb
Here's Marco, CU3DJ, with Caralonia and Raquel (my favorite teacher in the Azores), and that's NO BULL - even though Marco always slings the bull.
Thumb
Tex, VK1TX, was so embarassed to be part of this Unholy Trio, that he made sure that his hat cast a long shadow - something he can't do! - and Doc, AF4MI and Carlton (our favorite doorman), KU4UC, look on.
Thumb
Here's Johnny, ZD8KW, better known as ZD7WRG. I won't talk about how he got his nickname...in fact, I won't even mention it.
Thumb
This is my 'special' dx friend Rocsi, down by the seaside in a nicer season. No snow here, and, no, guys, she isn't available for dates!
Thumb
This is Jack, M5PRO. I find him on 20 meters many mornings before I head off to school. Jack, of course, is a student and just 15. If any of my friends hear him on the air, I hope you'll give him a call....and send him a card, too!
Thumb
If one Sandy is good, than two Sandys must be Great. Here it is, Sandy to the second power...otherwise known as G0WLY. Great to see you Sandy, and be not afraid!
