Biography

Hi,

I am QRV since 1999. My main focus is on the 50 MHz, 144 MHz, 432 MHz, and 1296 MHz bands where I'm active in SSB and digital modes. Sometimes I'm also QRV on 28 MHz or even 14 MHz.

From time to time I explore 13 cm and 3 cm as well. But until now I'm only QRV in analogue ATV on 13 cm. However, with my SDR devices I can do further QRP experiments on 13 cm (~ 2 watts PEP) such as QO-100 operation.

My QTH is exactly midway between Cologne and Frankfurt(M).

Please NO QSL via bureau! But I'm happy to exchange cards via eQSL, LoTW, and postal mail.
