Biography

I've been a licensed amateur, with Basic qualification, since 1994. I got into the hobby, because of my interest in electronics and radio. I haven't been very active on the air, until I got on the HF bands and obtained my Advanced qualification in 2012. Since then, I've enjoyed conversations with folks around the world and a little DX contesting. Hope to hear you on the air! 73, Martin.
