Biography
Hi there,
this is Thomas, DO1BA, OM since March 12 2018, but interested in since I was about 14. (So it took about 30 years to get the license LOL)
A personal highlight would be to talk to VA1VAS / VE1VAS (Marconi National Historic Site of Canada). I visited this station in 2008, but not as a OM. Unfortunately I can't remember the name of the OM I talked to when I was there. (see also here: https://www.pc.gc.ca/en/lhn-nhs/ns/marconi/activ )
Also the digital modes FT8, FT4 and VarAC are interesting. Occasionally I'm on the way as DO1BA/P doing things like SOTA, COTA, WWFF, GMA, ...
