Welcome
Greetings! My name is Ron Harden, Jr. (RJ). My Callsign is WT5X.
Welcome to my virtual shack!
I am a 3rd generation Ham Radio Operator having been granted the Amateur Extra Class license. (WT5X) I was first licensed as a Novice in the mid 1980s. (KB5HGM) Both of my parents, my sister, my wife and both of my daughters are licensed. (Some days, dad and I can’t get a word in edgewise!)
