CASTLE WACKERSTEIN

Amateur Radio from this 1000 years old historic Bavarian castle upon Danube river

My shack is located in the bay window, south direction to the river side. The bay-window has three windows, east-south-west. From my shack I enjoy a marvelous sight over the river Danube.
Antenna wires go down from the southern window toward river Danube as a symmetrical inverted-V
of random length. Ground conditions are excellent. I usually use 100 watts of RF power output.

About My HAM Radio Career

I started Amateur Radio in 1978 at the age of 18 when I received my C-class Call DD9CC which then in Germany was a VHF/UHF license only. Short after, in 1980, I was luckily able to greatly improve my CW skills during the cold war when I was called for the compulsory military service as a CW short wave reconnaisance specialist at the age of 20 years. Thanks to those incredibly perfect east european high-speed CW military short wave operators at that time more than 30 years ago, I improved my CW skills to a high grade. I was 21 years old when I passed the test for the short wave HAM radio license (1981).

I received the call DL6MBI in May 1981.In August 2012 my call changed to DL6ZB.

Dispatch of QSL cards. QSO confirmation.
I usually confirm every QSO except contest qsos with a standard paper QSL card. Most and even contest QSOs usually are confirmed by eQSL and LoTW.

I do collect QSL cards so even your paper QSL is very welcomed.
