Biography

I am passionate about amateur radio since childhood, but I received my license only in 2022. I like QRP mostly. I am old school, so I prefer SSB or CW.

I like building my own equipment. There is a particular satisfaction for me in using homebrew gear. I prefer simple circuits that do not require very large budgets. I am always amazed by the results obtained with just a few components. Because over time I worked a lot with digital equipment, in amateur radio I prefer everything to be analog.

The best part of the hobby, is that I made great friends from all over the world. It feels like I have family relatives everywhere around the world. Maybe people could learn from the amateur radio community about the way we get along and help each other. I appreciate a lot how helpful people are in this hobby. That is also why I’ve learned so much in a short time.

Most of the equipment I’m building is on the Blog and on the YouTube Channel.

IMPORTANT INFO:

I never use /P, /M or /QRP, mostly because /P, /M or /QRP are non-DX modifiers anyway. I will be portable but still call as YO6DXE when doing activations for SOTA, POTA, or other similar activity. /QRP really makes no sense to me since 99% of the time I am always QRP anyway ( hi ). Please always log me as YO6DXE ( Thank you so much in advance ).
