JE1CKA visits

Last week, Tack JE1CKA and his girlfriend came to Guam for vacation. Tack is a well known contester in Japan and around the world. Unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate for him, but fortunately he was able to stop by for a short visit.

I’ve met Tack twice before. Once many years ago in Saipan during one of the KH0AM multi-op efforts, and again in 2006 in Brazil for WRTC. He and KG6DX are the only two hams who’ve visited my station to date.

Tack took this photo of my at my station. If you’re wondering, the large steel junction box behind me is the transfer switch between main power and generator backup. The bottles are all WW2 era I found in the jungle while working on antennas.
