HK3/IZ0GYP from Bogotà Colombia (started on January 30th, 2008 - ended officially at 17:30Z of September 27th, 2009) I have been active from the capital of Colombia (Bogota) from 10 to 40 meters (phone, cw, rtty, psk, wspr and jt65). Starting from January 2009 i have been also active using WSPR from FJ24. Unfortunately due to call digit limit (6 digits) you will decode me and spotted as IZ0GYP; anyhow grid locator will assure correct and proper distance calculation. Working conditions are FT-897D/I, PO 100W, windom (10 to 40 meters), diamond W-735 (mainly for 30 & 40 meters) and a homemade Ribakov (80 meters).
All QSOs are uploaded regularly on LOTW. A special QSL (the one shown on QRZ.com) has been already prepared and sent to all stations that made contact with me (via buro). QSLs are printed and sent via the Global QSL service. QSL are sent to all stations contacted (even to the ones already confirmed via LOTW or direct). I do hope to receive also yours. As some of you already knows i'm replying also to direct QSLs (as far as i'm in Rome for vacation). All SWL cards will be answered too and are more than welcome. Achieved awards: LOTW WAS Mixed, CW, 20M, 40M, 40M CW; eQSL WAS. NO CONTRIBUTION NOR SASE ARE REQUIRED Best Regards and many thanks to all of you that replied to my calls and my QSLs (bureau, LOTW, eQSL or whateverelse). HK3/IZ0GYP - Enrico PS: a special thank to ND, HI and all US OMs that help me to complete my WAS awards (Tnx!!!!) ====================================================================== ======================================================================
On regular basis i'm flying back to Italy, where i live.
I'm 41 and licensed since 1989. Due to my job i'm often travelling around the world. That's why i just recently started real HAM activity. ARRL member since 2006. QSL policy... oh... if a hate this issue. I personally do understand people that for some good reason (geographycal remote location, real budget problems, etc.) may request contribution. On the other side i disagree with someone else that, to limit troubles that thousands of QSL will produce in their quiet radio shack simply ask for SASE... (that's too easy dear OMs)...and i do avoid to refer to those that think that this is the easy way to renew their shack. But... ...but you all should remember the first time that you made a QSO with a "common" country for many but totally new for you. Did you appreciate the QSL? Did you became happy? (i defently think so)... therefore here is my simple QSL policy: I WILL call not only CQ DX but also CQ and therefore give to all "rookies" possibility to work one of the hundreds italian HAM stations and one of the tens of Rome's stations.
I WILL NOT accept to reduce a hobby to a pure business.
