District 2 Representative~Suzan Colon, W2QMI

Extra License; first licensed in 2018.  I joined the YLRL in 2022 and live in Old Bridge, New Jersey.  My love for the radio is like a continuous wave length. It started long ago when I was a little girl sitting on my Grandpa’s knee as he worked the waves.  I loved listening and occasionally got to speak as well.  I then turned my interest to CB.  My radio interest was revitalized in 2018 when I received a 5W HT. I then pursued to obtain my FCC license becoming a Technician in September 2018. When Covid 19 occurred, my radio activity dwindled so I went online to finish my BSM and graduated in July 2020. In January 2022, I passed both the General and Extra on the same day. A few weeks later, I became an ARRL VE and was recently appointed an ARRL Official Relay Station. I serve as a NCO for the United Counties Traffic Net and other club nets including a weekly Wednesday night YL net. I’m interested in POTA, so mobility is a key component for me.  I look forward to promoting and being a part of the YLRL.
