Biography

Hi I am Hans Luetzhoeft born in Korsoer Denmark in 1946.

I live in Vallensbaek Strand a small town located approx. 14 km south of the capital Copenhagen.

My professional life has for long periods been characterized by a lot of travel activity, so I has visit many countries worldwide over the years

As a child I lived for a few years in Norway at the small town Sokna (near Hoenefoss) and Dilling (near Moss).

I've been interested in electronics for most of my life and got my amateur license in 1973.

I was partly retired in 2016 and work now part time as engineer in a Danish consulting firm.

I’m QRV on almost all amateur bands from  80 meter up to 70 cm (SSB/FM) and on DMR Brandmeister, DMR PLUS and D-Star.

I've working FT8 regularly on the HF band

Currently using a 20 meter quad loop antenna in the flagpole, which I can run with fine SWR from 80 to 10 meters using my CG3000 automatic antenna tuner.

Vertical antenna for VHF/UHF/6 meter:
- Diamond V2000, vertical
Horizontal antenna for VHF/UHF:
- COMBI Logperiodic "beam" (pointing south west)
Horizontal antenna for VHF: 
- Big wheel (omnidirectional)

I'm (almost every day) QRV on Brandmeister TG238 and D-star Reflector DCS004-B

Look forward to meet you on the air!

73 OZ8RZ, Hans
