TROY AMATEUR RADIO CLUB HAM OF THE MONTH

Frank Gagliardi, W2FPG - A Ham With Many Skills!

Every once in awhile you meet a ham that wear's many of hat's and Frank, W2FPG certainly is one that falls into that category. Over the last couple year's Frank has been real busy trying to better his station but more importantly expanding on his knowledge of emergency operation's. As you might expect this is no easy feat and Frank has spent many of hours honing his skills but in the end he is quite proud of his accomplishments...we are too Frank!

Frank is an avid NTS (National Traffic System) traffic handler and control operator station. If you look in "QST" every month under the "Public Service Honor Roll" you'll see W2FPG and the amount of traffic he has send or received.

In addition to all of the above Frank has been appointed by the ARRL as an Official Emergency Station & Official Relay Station. He also serves as Training Officer for Rensselaer County ARES/RACES. Frank volunteered his services in New York City following the 911 disaster and just this past weekend (11/07) he participated in the communications for the New York City Marathon. Now that's pretty impressive!
