Currently live in Seoul, Korea and operate as HL1/WX8C. I enjoy DXing, HF contesting and operating from various countries that I visit. Have had recent operations as T88OO, HS0ZID, JT1/WX8C, KH2/WX8C, and WX8C/BY4AA. Also, thanks to Champ (E21EIC) and Dej (E21YDP), I recently had the privilege of guest operating as HS80A.  Also, a lot of thanks to Champ for helping me with obtaining my Thai license.

Had a great time on the Palau trip and operated from the Palau Pacific Resort.  All direct and bureau cards for T88OO and T88YB have been sent out.  If you still need a card, feel free to contact me or HL1IWD for the T88YB cards.  We did make several hundred RTTY contacts, which seemed to be a new mode/country for many.  We are rookie RTTY operators, so we appreciated everyone's patience. 

Due to recent limitations on my HF antennas in Seoul, I have recently been trying out the SO-50 and AO-51 "birds" using a handheld and handheld Arrow yagi from my apartment balcony or out the window, depending on the orbit location. I have managed to pick-up a number of JAs and a couple of HLs. My balcony overlooks the Iraqi embassy in Seoul, so I am trying to not attract too much attention with my satellite "balcony operation".

In October 2007, we activated HL9BSA for the 50th anniversary Jamboree on the Air, operating from Yongsan U.S. Military Garrison in downtown Seoul. The event was attended by approximately 10 U.S. Boy Scouts, a number of adult volunteers and several Korean amateur radio operators who assisted with the operation. In October 2008, we were active from Camp Humphreys for the 51st anniversary JOTA.  You can QSL any 2007 or 2008 contacts to me.

Several Seoul/Yongsan area amateurs have also activated HL9A a couple of times over the past year from a temporary operating location on Yongsan U.S. Military Garrison.  We only have a 40 meter dipole, so we have been mostly limited to 40 and 15 meter activity.  There are not too many HL9 stations active right now, but we are trying to fill "the void".
