Story:

I'm starting in 1981 with club- stations UKØFAN, UKØFAA and as SWL. In April, 1982 I have received the first License and call EZØFAE. As EZØFAE I was authorized to work with capacity 5 Watt only on 160m band. After one year I already had the License of Second class and call UAØFFH. In 1989, after receiving High Class License the call was replaced on short and good sound - RAØFF.
I'm CQ zone 19 checkpoint for WAZ awards.
