Welcome to the VA7RY & VE4COZ Home Page


My name is Irek Kwapich.
I emigrated to Canada in 1990 from Poland (via SV9 1988-1990)
I was first licensed as SP6COZ in 1978, in 1992 I received my advanced license and callsign VE4COZ.
I am mostly interested in DX-ing and contesting, preferring RTTY.
I am no longer living in Winnipeg, Manitoba, we've moved to Kelowna BC. in Aug. 2004
I kept my VE4 callsign, so it is also possible to work me as VE4COZ
