Biography

Hi, welcome to my page.

My name is Fred (Manfried) and I got my license in 09-2022.

I got my passion for this hobby from the CB period in the early 80's, in the early 90's I started with DXing on the 11M band and stopped in 1999 as we moved to a different location where I wasn't able to setup an antenna.

End 2021 I started to watch some youtube video's regarding DXing and got the vibe again, I started with the course in 2022 and did pass my exam in september 2022.

So if you hear me making some mistakes, please forgive me, I need to learn....a lot ;)
