Hi, Thnx for looking me up on QRZ.com !
Qth just outside the city of Åre, a Swedish skiresort, 700 km north of countrys capitol Stockholm.
My Qth, on the mountain side, 520 m above sea level, offers very good antenna possibilities and a very low noice level. Something I really appreciate during DX'ing and Contests.
Working to improve my antennas, winter weather are quite rough with lots of snow, iceing and hard winds. One need to take that into account when constructing and building .
QSL Policy: all qso will be confirmed with e-Qsl and uploaded to LoTW. If I receive a papercard I will reply in the same way as received (bureau or direct).

Picture taken at Ristafallet, west part of Jemtland close to my Åre Qth, may 30 - 2011. The waterfall is known historically from being on the pilgrims walk to Olav the holy's grave in Nidaros (Trondheim). As well as from the Astrid Lindgren movie about Ronja Rövardotter (Ronja the Robbers Daughter).
-
I will listen, and listen, and then listen again before calling.
-
I will only call if I can copy the DX station properly.
-
I will not trust the DX cluster and will be sure of the DX station's call sign before calling.
-
I will not interfere with the DX station nor anyone calling and will never tune up on the DX frequency or in the QSX slot.
-
I will wait for the DX station to end a contact before I call.
-
I will always send my full call sign.
-
I will call and then listen for a reasonable interval. I will not call continuously.
-
I will not transmit when the DX operator calls another call sign, not mine.
-
I will not transmit when the DX operator queries a call sign not like mine.
-
I will not transmit when the DX station requests geographic areas other than mine.
-
When the DX operator calls me, I will not repeat my call sign unless I think he has copied it incorrectly.
-
I will be thankful if and when I do make a contact.
-
I will respect my fellow hams and conduct myself so as to earn their respect.
