Hello all, I am Hayato a Ham out of Oahu Hawaii. I got my technicians license a few months ago but have been working in the radio field for a few years now. Working on my general license so I can start playing around with my xeigu g90. Trying to get more into this hobby and am excited to get some contacts outside of local repeaters. ---

Welcome to the Hobby!! I became a ham 4 years ago and this has been the most fun I have had in years.. so many different ways to communicate around the world. I have a general ticket and working towards my Extra ticket.. Hope to hear you on the HF bands someday soon and look forward to having a QSO with you.. Best wishes and 73…
