MY PREVIOUS EQUIPMENT

Everything began in 1969 .After reading an article about a radio club I started my adventure with ham radio.First I was granted my SWL call SP9-2233 and I spent many hours over my old broadcasting radio.Then in 1973 I passed succesfully ham exam and I got my SP9HZX callsign.I like SSB and CW contacts though I sometimes use PSK31.I like experimenting on magnetic loop and mobile antennas.And now I think of EH antennas as well. I am fond of portable operation especially from the islands located in the Mediterranean Sea. I can be met on all HF bands.And I often use QRP.
