Biography

Aloha, In August 20-27/2025 I gone be QRV 23-25 on O'ahu to participate at the Hawaii QSO Party at Pear Harbor 0400 Z time and in October 04-24/2025 I return KH6/ON5WO Waialua & KH6BB Pearl Harbor.


In October 2023 I was on the Island of O'Ahu in Hawaii KH6/ON5WO from Waialua and I'm the first Belgium volunteer HAM operator on the battleship USS Missouri BB-63 ( Mighty Mo ) in Pearl Harbor: KH6BB, mostly QRV on 10 - 12 m band, 1005 QSO's in 14 days from 05 till 19 october 2023. I thank all the stations I was able to work.



Thanks for visiting my page, I'm born on 07/02/1965, ex under officer telecommununications and instructor Air Commando, I'm only QRV on 160-80-60-40-30-20-17-15-12-10-6 m band in SSB and CW, sometimes on 2 m band SSB, I hope to meet you soon on the band(s).
My favorite is looking for DXpeditions and hunting for new IOTA's
