On Saturday, December 13, 2008. I took my Technician test and passed.
Then as of 9 AM ET on Monday December 15, 2008 I received my call sign “KJ4IKR”.
On Monday Feb 28, 2011 My Daughter at the time was 4 and wanted her name as My Call Sign so on Friday, March 4, 2011, I applied for a vanity callsign.
On Tueday, March 22, 2011, I was granted the callsign *K4KNJ*. Her initials being “KNJ”.
Finally on Saturday December 10, 2022 Almost exactly 14 years
Later I sat down at 9am at MUSC in Florence, SC (The Same Exact Spot I took my Tech Test) and Passed the General Class Test with Missing only 3 questions!
Now you can find me on HF….

I plan on using my Solar Power Array during power outages at my home, on various camping trips and on a multitude of Amateur Radio Events including POTA. If you know of or have a Amateur Radio Event in the North Eastern part of SC or South Eastern part of NC then please email me k4knj1@gmail.com I will be happy to attend to either put the solar panels to use or show it off and perhaps help other Hams who wish to build their own!
