Biography

I've received my ham license on 12/31/81, and started transmissions in the early days of 1982 with the great help of Mr. Hector (LU6DLR), mainly in 80m AM and CW, and rarely in 10m SSB boarding LU3EXP´s Yaesu FT-707.
In the B&W picture you can see an old National HRO5 HF receiver whose bands were changeable by changing small boxes, given temporarily by Jorge Bozzo (LU8DQ), CW world champion, living in my neighbor and family friend as well.
In the color picture you can see Suiza Sq. in Bernal, from where Guglielmo Marconi started the DX saga in South America.
I've been on the air until 1984. Different life situations made me leave ham radio and finally my license expired.
During 2020, in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemia and shutdown, I've decided to renew my expired license and clean the dust of an old Kenwood TH-25AT HT bought in 1994 that was never used. Slowly started to add new equipment.
I'm experimenting with satellites in different modes by using a home made QFH antenna for 2m and a bought EggBeater for 70cm.
I'm active on HF bands, working FT4, FT8, SSB & CW (in QRS). Rarely in RTTY.
I log QSO's on eQSL, LoTW, ClubLog, QRZ and LdA.
