Welcome to my little HAM-page!



some words about me...

I was born and grew up in HB9 as a native DL, started with electronics in the early age of 7, spend some time on CB, made some pirate transmissions on VHF, did a lot of SWL, completed an apprentiship as Radio/TV service man in 1996 and finally discovered amateur radio quite late in 2002 after finishing my Engineer degree of IT and Communication at the university of applied in Winterthur. I started as HB3YEV, a call that was later awarded for reaching more than 25 DXCC over amateuer satellite. My main focus is on frequencies above 144MHz. I joined DARC R01 in 2004 after I received the call DG3YEV in Muhlheim an der Ruhr. Since 2006 I am active member of uWSDR a group of microwave enthusiasts working on an open microwave SDR platform. In my professional live I work as software developer in the north of bavaria. I am now member of the radio club B36 Ebrachtal.

73 to all!

 


QTF 90 degree

 

My main activity in switzerland is 2m/70cm/23cm and 3cm DX and contesting.

With my old swiss licence (HB3YEV) I worked many stations over OSCAR-40. For that work I received the AMSAT Achievment Award.

Sadly this satellite is currently dead because of battery shortage.

My activities on shortwave are BPSK31 and SSB all QRP only with the FT-817.
BPSK31 is a relatively new digital mode of operation.
It does not require a big S/N ratio and is extremely narrow (only 31Hz theoretic bandwith).
There are several programs that are available for this mode. Visit also http://psk31.com
