Biography

I am an avid shortwave listener and General Clas Amateur Radio Operator. I have always been fascinated with radio and spent many years as a young person tinkering with old tube sets and small world band transistor radios and trying to see what I could hear on the airways. I’ve only recently became active again in shortwave listening and have recently acquired my ham ticket.
