📻 Ham Radio

Ham Radio – a hobby enjoyed by many and endured by most of their neighbours… If you’ve landed here then it’s probably because we’ve just had a QSO or perhaps you’ve typed some words into your favourite search engine and found this site.

📡 Activity & Operation

Activity-wise, I’m a SSB/CW/FT8 operator at home, and also SSB/CW/FT8 when portable.

🏠 In the Shack & Field

In the shack, there’s a Yaesu FT-991A and a Kenwood TS-690S with a G5RV antenna.

SOTA, WWFF and POTA are also an important part of the hobby for me, using a Xiegu G90 transceiver and a SOTAbeams multiband dipole.

I am also active from my cottage with a Yaesu FT-450, a delta loop (81m) and a GAP Titan.

📬 QSL & Logging

QSLs: QSL via eQSL/LoTW are uploaded regularly!

Hams like to keep lists, make pretty charts and tick things off, and that includes me: Logging is therefore done with Log4OM for desktop logging and HAM2K PoLo for /P. Log4OM gives me a QSO logger, DXCC stats, DX Cluster and much more. For contesting, N1MM is for me simply the best. All are FREE and available for you to download and use.

👤 About Me

My interest in amateur radio started back in 1967 with lots of listening to HF+VHF along with learning CW.

Took my exam and got the ham radio license in 1969. I have been working ham radio from different parts of Norway and also 7 years from HK4, Medellin, Colombia.
