Kelly's Band Plays in Huntington Beach

Kelly and his band, Tsunami Blue, played at Huntington Beach on Sunday. Kelly is 2nd from left in the photo.

Robbin, daughters Carrie Ann and Carrie Renee, and granddaughters Kayla and Chloe spent the day cheering them on.

They were participating in a weekend concert presented by the Huntington Beach Surf Museum.

My name is Bill Albrant, and I live in Murrieta, California with my wife Robbin. We have 5 children, and 10 grandchildren.

In 1959 I was first licensed as KN7JYE in Oakridge, Oregon. After upgrading to the "Extra" class license I received the current call sign of K6CU.

The first "rig" was a Knight Kit Ocean Hopper and a converted ARC-5 transmitter. Other radios owned over the years include a Drake TR-3, TR-4, and "C" line. Also a Collins "S" line, Icom IC-735, Kenwood TS-930, and numerous "boat anchors".

Recently added a Yaseu FT-950, replacing a Kenwood TS-850Sat. QRP radio is a Heathkit HW-8, and the antenna is a Butternut HF-6v.

Most of my activity is working "DX" and contests using morse code (cw). For several years I was also one of the operators at the contest station of W6BA in 29 Palms, CA. A great experience!
