CW Station on the Gulf of Finland

Currently operating the amateur radio station OH1DAU.
Radio is just a hobby for me. I’m not in a hurry and I don’t chase awards or contests.
I prefer comfortable and easy-to-copy CW speeds. I’m on the air mainly
for relaxed QSOs with colleagues.
All former radio operators are especially welcome.
