This callsign was previously used by late SM5DQC, Östen, who sadly and unexpectedly became a Silent Key in September 2007. Östen was very interested in the DXCC-program and was one of the very first DXCC-Card-Checker outside the US.

Now 5 years later and as of August 1st 2012, I will re-activate this callsign now and then and upload all contacts into LoTW. Also direct and bureau-cards will be answered by me, Jan SM5DJZ.
