Biography
Born: 14.Nov.1927
I am a resident of the oldest historical part of the Hungarian capital near the former Royal Castle. Most of the houses here were built in the middle ages. For this reason I am not permitted to use a large rotary beam or similar antenna. I must operate with an antenna invisible for the public. My RIG is a Kenwood 440 SAT without amplifier, an indoor antenna for 40/20 meter and a vertical for 10/15/20 meter.
I was born 1927. I was employee of the Hungarian Electricity Network Company and worked in a laboratory for high tension. I have enjoyed my professional work but have also been always very interested in the history of fine arts, especially paintings, and classical musik. My wife is a painter. Her pictures can bee seen in www.zsokica.freeblog.hu. I have been amateur photographer for many years. My photos from the Buda Castel District are shown in www.flickr.com/ha5tl.
