Biography
I got my license since 1977 back then when we needed the 10 & 15 wpm morse code test
I discovered contest around 1995 when I upgraded my antenna system with a known contester. . Of course my own goal is to reach +200 countries all bands done at exception of 160 m at 194 countries..
I am retired since April 2014 now I get more time to chase the rare dx and to have a nice conversation over HF bands.
