Biography

Thanks For checking in. If you're looking at this we probably had a QSO!. My name is Oscar Luis and I'm 40.

My passion is Dxing and contesting in all modes SSB, RTTY and CW. I consider contesting a very exciting DX activity which can be compared to motorcycling racing; a mix of curves and speed make you release all your adrenaline.Contesting in its way, the more QSOs you get, the better you feel and lots of adrenaline are also released.In the end…it is all about working under pressure; and that is something that I enjoy……. I am member of THE KILO RADIO DX GROUP, KINGS OF RADIO, it is a small group, but all great friends, which are together for the passion of DXing and contesting!!

Every day I have more fun with the 6 mts band!!, now I understand why it is called the " Magic Band " , it is so incredible. Together with the Top Band these are my two favourite bands and those wich make me happier lately They must have something special

I Installed my first Beverage antenna, I think the antenna is easier to build and easier to install - The only disadvantage is the physical lenght required, but the results are great!!!

My radio history started as a Novice in 1982. Upgrading and moving led to four different callsigns over the years. You can find me on almost any band and any mode (SSB, CW, RTTY) so look for me and say Hey .!!

Motorcycles are my other hobby and i proudly ride a nice Honda CBR.900.RR , and QUAD, Yamaha Warrior 350.

QSL's

QSL's via bureau, direct, and LOTW I would appreciate and SASE be included with direct requests. This will speed up the response. However, I will answer any card received even without an SASE. I love the all time paper's QSLs, as been aQSL collector I enjoy looking at their designs. I believe they are in a certainway part of ourselves. I'd be grateful if you send yours to me. I'm convinced you will receive mine 100%. Thank you very much.
I REMEMBER: THE FINAL COURTESY OF A QSO is a QSL!! hope to see you around the bands!!! Thanks and 73's all there.
