Today, I received an eQSL card that struck me right in the heart. As a radio amateur, I’m used to receiving many QSL cards, but this one was something special. It came from Ukraine, where some time ago I had an FT-8 QSO with another radio amateur. The image on the card showed a young woman with a fishing net catching Russian bombs. It left a deep impression on me.

Another CQ World Wide SSB Contest is complete! After an intense weekend at the radio, I can look back on a couple of days filled with challenges, endurance, and excitement. The goal was clear: 100 QSOs in the QRP class – a target that demanded patience, technique, and plenty of persistence!

As a radio amateur, I step into a fantastic world of technology and communication, where the boundaries between countries and cultures dissolve. My goal with this blog is to share my passion and showcase the many opportunities that lie within this fascinating hobby.
