Hello dear YL or OM,

my name is Tom and I am located in south Germany near Munich. These days I am not very active in ham radio. You can only find me in front of the radio at the clubstation if there is a new DXCC for me on the bands. Actually,  I´ve been preparing and building my portable QRP rig for future outdoor activities. In 2015 I am going to take part in the World Flora and Fauna programme and activate some WFF areas next to my location.

I want to say thank you to Peter, DK1MBY, my great morse code teacher.

I am also very grateful for the time with Horst, DJ2WN (sk), in front of his radio. He was my mentor in all terms of dxing but past away in 2003.

My log is beeing uploaded to LOTW regulary.
