Biography

I`m born in 1966, I got my first CB radio when I was 12 years old. When I got my drivers license I mounted CB radio in my car to communicate with my friends. I dreamed about ham license but I struggled with CW. But in 199? they issued a new license class without CW, but it required more technical knowledge. The tecnical license which I got in 1998 allowed me amateur privileges above 50 MHz. In 200? my license was converted to A which gave me all amateur privileges on all bands.

I am currently working as a teacher. I have been inactive for a few years, but since my kids are grown up, I have more time for my hobbies. I bought my yaesu ft450 to try digimodes just in time before covid lockdown, so I have tested mostly FT8 and it fitted perfectly when I had home office.

Lately I have been working with testing homebuilt wire antennas.
