Biography

Hello, my name is Ibrahim Noor, I live in Balikpapan, East Borneo Indonesia.

Main radio interests are homebrewing started in 1985 when I was 15 years old. In the 1985 to 1988 I was an avid short wave listener and constructor of electronic equipment and radio AM 80m band transmitter. First transmitter I built is AM 80m band 3 stages of transistor with push-pull transistor modulator. At the same year I had built another transmitter 80m band using 1 stage of tube 6L6 with push-pull transistor modulator.
