When lower band means higher rank Having now a special callsign ( YR0B ) but not so much time, I had to choose again a band opened at night. I’ve decided to go for the 160m band just to make an attempt at the long awaited 160m DXCC. Unfortunately not too many new DXCCs for…
First time with a special personal Callsign It was interesting an fun to work. I thought that the special callsign will help me a lot but, being the first contest in which I used it, it was not quite so. I have received many requests to repeat or to reconfirm the callsign. This proved…
RSGB FT4 Contest – 2023 Compared to last year, this year I’ve stepped up and came second. It was nice again but, sometimes, with difficult moments. I’ve missed an event but Steve – PJ4DX did the same so we can compare our results and, again, he was the best one. Maybe because he has the help…
A speedy pass through Not no much history. As I was busy during the days, I had to choose a band opened at night. I enjoyed participation but I was too tired to squeez every QSO out of the QRM. See you all next year! 73s and GL de Sorin

Ham Radio – 2023 So, I got lucky. Shortly after the Dayton Hamvention I am traveling with my friend YO8DHA – Dorin to the annual meeting of hams on the shore of Bodensee. It is too expensive to take a ride with the Zeppelin but riding the flea market is always a pleasure. And it can…
RSGB FT4 – 2023 Contest 4/9 You cannot have all you want. That’s for sure in each and every way. And you all know this very well. My last example for this is the 4th event of this year’s RSGB FT4 Contest. Sad, but true, I was not able to participate. But ….. the reason…
