Biography
Also: M0CEF (1999/2000, 2004-2014), MO0CEF (2012), MQ0CEF (2012), MR0CEF (2011)
Ex: DG0LFH (Sept. 1993 - Jan. 1998), F/DG0LFH/p, IW/DG0LFH/p (1993/1994), M/DL2LFH/p (1998/1999, 2004), ON/DL2LFH/p (2015)
QTH until 2004: Geringswalde, JO61KB, LDK MW (until 2008) or FG (later).
DOK: H 13 since June 2025. W21 from April 2004 to May 2025. Y09 until March 2004.
2004-2013 no fixed station in DL. Now QTH in LDK H.
I like to operate portable and prefer CW and QRP on HF and simplex on VHF.
Operating away from home I always sign /p or /m depending on the circumstances and write or print my temporary QTH on the QSL card. I never use "unofficial suffixes" such as /qrp or /lh or anything else.
I prefer paper QSLs. My address is correct in the German callbook and in Buckmaster's. If you send me a QSL card, please indicate your QTH!
eQSL only for QSOs from one of my fixed locations, from Potsdam/JO62NJ or from Hannover/JO42VJ. All others I have to reject - it is difficult to manage eQSL accounts for many different portable QTHs. Please send paper QSLs in such cases.
I reply to Hamlog QSL requests for QSOs until 2021, and I also register received QSL cards in DCL.
I do not use LoTW or QRZ's online logbook.
Would the authors and/or managers of the various electronic QSL platforms please find a way to cooperate, so that we only need to register on a single website?
Equipment
Mostly older stuff without bells or whistles. As long as the receiver is sensitive enough, and the transmitter reasonably clean, I'm all right with it. I prefer low power operation (5 W or less).
