My name is Fred Lesnick and my call sign is VE3FAL. I have been involved with radio since my days as a young boy after I fixed up an old console radio that my Grandparents had brought over with them from Finland. The radio had AM and all the shortwave bands on it. I along with another friend of mine who was very keen on electronics were able to get the radio up and running, I made a new dial for it and had it marked with all the shortwave stations on each band. I then started to hear other stuff on the radio that peaked my interest and then turned to utility listening after my parents bought me a Radio Shack Globe Patrol Receiver kit that had to be assembled and aligned. From there I was able to listen to utility stations and amateurs. Of course the big CB craze was on and I had a 23 channel radio and built a 5/8 ground plane antenna to talk locally and eventually some long distance stuff.
Once I got to high school I continued with electronics and was then turned to the amateur radio club at the school, the club call was VE3SEC and I ended up learning about ham radio and radio equipment and ended up spending most of my off time and breaks in the radio room operating the radio. I had already learned Morse for listening to coastal stations so knowing it for the ham bands was a bonus.
I eventually got my own call and have since enjoyed the hobby; I operate mostly all QRP and have a number of rigs that I use at home and portable.
I am DEC for our Amethyst ARES group and a member of The Salvation Army Team Emergency Network. I am also an Accredited Examiner for Industry Canada and do the exams for new amateurs to be.
My YL Teresa is also a ham and her call is VE3TLL.
The hobby continues to grow in leaps and bounds with new modes and new equipment all the time, but the low power and portable stuff is what still interests me.
I am also a founder of our local QRP Club, The Little Thunder QRP Club here in Thunder Bay, and our club call is VE3LTQ.
I hope to work many of you members and look forward to submitting a few more articles and notes for your club newsletter.
73!
