Team ND7K Superstation: Tim N6WIN

Tim Coker N6WIN grew up in a ham radio family—his father, mother, and brother were all hams. Tim himself became a licensed amateur radio operator at the age of 11. Starting from these modest beginnings, Tim's ham radio operating soon turned toward competitive contesting. This path eventually led him to design and build the ND7K superstation in Arizona, along with his friend and world-class contester, Dan Craig N6MJ.

The effort has truly been a team approach from the earliest days, as Tim wisely reached out to hams with specific areas of expertise. Tim's teamwork philosophy extended to his multi-operator efforts, always aiming to win. His high expectations and leadership abilities continue to make a significant impact at ND7K.

As a further example of Tim’s teamwork approach, he’s turned the keys to ND7K over to Dan N6MJ for all the major 2024 contests to support Dan’s quest to qualify for the World Radiosport Team Championship 2026.
