Biography

Hi, welcome to my page

A bit of history here:
Since the age of 13 a have an interest in scanners, antenna's and (mobile) tranceivers. Listening to scanners was and still is fun. About 25 years ago I started with CB. On the CB I tried several antenna's including the famous K40 mobile antenna. Soon I built an inverted V on the attic and later a GPA on the balcony rail. At that time I installed scanners and CB in my car and BMW motorbike. I used the long version of the DV27 antenna and a 5/8 wave Kathrein antenna for VHF reception on my car to receive the fire department. That worked out quite well.

After a long period of silence (only RX) it was time for me to move on to the next stage and got my N-license in 2017.

Hope make a QSO with you (again) anytime soon
