Biography

Back in '85 or '86 i was ~5 years old, my uncle (YO3DBN/F4FNA) made a small HF receiver with an 10-12 meters longwire. Personally I saw that radio (at that age) like something unbelievable to hear Germans, French, Italians from thousand kilometers away...
Time passed and in summer of 2018 I saw on youtube some methods of prepping and getting also a radio within the BOB. Hence I wanted to have an HF, than I found out that also a license is required to use it out of PMR446 range, so in august 2019 I applied for radio license.
I've received my callsign in December 2019 and after over a year of SWL now i can also press the ptt :)

Thank you for visiting and I wish you all the best
73!
