Does my Face Match my Voice??

If you hear me on the air, you might indeed wonder what I look like.  


I mean, when I hear radio voices I get mental images of people's faces, and I wonder how far off I am compared to their actual looks..


More often than not, when I finally meet ham friends  face to face, I'm shocked.  I'm shocked because of how far off  I was.


All that said, here are some pictures I took today so you can put a face to my voice.  How far off was your mental image of me?

2012 - Annual Armed Forces Day Crossband Test Scheduled for May 12

The Army, Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard are co-sponsoring the annual Military/Amateur Radio Crossband Communications Test in celebration of the 62nd anniversary of Armed Forces Day (AFD). Although the actual Armed Forces Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in May -- May 19 in 2012 -- the AFD Military/Amateur Crossband Communications Test will be conducted on May 12 to prevent conflict with the Dayton Hamvention®, scheduled for May 18-20.


The annual celebration features traditional military-to-amateur crossband communications SSB voice and Morse code tests. These tests give Amateur Radio operators and short wave listeners an opportunity to demonstrate their individual technical skills and to receive recognition from the appropriate military radio station for their proven expertise. QSL cards will be provided to those stations making contact with the military stations.
