Online Qsl Request System (OQRS) (wait 2-3 days to update the log). LotW also ok.

I born in Agrinio in West Greece at 1967, where i live. I am Electrical Engineer and i have my own office in Agrinio where i live. I am married with Gioyli and i have two daughters Tzina (15), Angela (11) and a son Chris (8).

I really love ham radio and this is my main hobby after March of 1996 when i passed the examinations and

got the call SV1DPI. I like also to collect stamps, make models and taking photos. I am active on cw,rtty,ssb and all digital modes from 160 to 6 meters. I enjoy especially the feldhell (FH #918). If you want we can arrange a sked for a feldhell qso. I am also SKCC member and i like operating with a straight key.

I like a lot and i want to collect qsl cards. I always reply 100% all buro cards and swl reports but you must know that turnaround time is abt 1 year for DL (the best buro), 1-2 years for SP, JA, I, EA, VE3, OK. All others are very slow and it is needed 3-5 years to receive and reply a card! I reply the direct cards the same day. I use LotW and eQSL but i don't upload my qsos very often, especially in eQSL.

See my site http://users.otenet.gr/~sv1dpi1/ , search my log and request your qsl card online. Don't forget that i need your qsl also. I send a qsl only if i receive one so this way you will reduce the time to get your qsl.

Also you can see my meteo station on http://users.otenet.gr/~sv1dpi1/wx/index.htm
