Biography

Radio & Data

I've been involved with radio and cypher since 1969. My interests are digimodes, antenna experimentation, QRP operation.

In 2021 I passed my CEPT Licence Class 1 exam and became GU5WZY.  Previously I was 2U0WZY and before that MU6WZY. When at sea I operate MSGQ7 on MF, HF, VHF, UHF, and Satellite.


QSO & QSL

I upload the details of every QSO to LoTW, eQSL, QRZ, QRZCQ, HamLog.ru, ClubLog.

I enjoy exchanging QSL cards: eQSL, BUREAU, or DIRECT, (no stamp or envelope needed).
