As a belated Christmas / Birthday / Father's Day present, my wonderful Wife Tina gifted me with a new Kenwood TH-F6A (handheld Amateur Radio). For some time I've wanted a portable that I could easily take with me to Amateur Radio events, pack up when traveling, and just casually place on my office desk to monitor some of the repeaters in my immediate area (around Redmond, Washington). I haven't been very active in Amateur Radio since my daughter was born, and now that she's well into her teens and Dad is usually an afterthought, I have some time available that I can devote to Amateur Radio again. I bought the TH-F6A over the counter at Ham Radio Outlet (HRO) in Portland, OR from Ron Holscher W7ATX who was fantastically gracious despite the sales process of this particular radio stretching back at least 18 months since I first visited Ron at HRO.
