Fred Dennin, WW4LL, has been part of the ham radio community the majority of his life. He's an avid DXer, competitive contester, and co-owner of BeLoud.US, providing remote access ham radio super stations located around the world. Fred was first licensed as a kid in Muncie, Indiana and spent lots of time operating with his best friend Steve Narducci, W9SN. Decades later, after many successful contest efforts but realizing their stations in Georgia (WW4LL) and Tennessee (W9SN) were just not enough to compete against the geographically advantaged Northeast operators. They began a search for land in Aroostook County Maine, did extensive viability testing, and ultimately found themselves in business together with their first remote access ham radio station. Listen to Fred talk about these experiences firsthand in this episode of W1DED in Maine. Thank you for joining the conversation.
