Thank you for looking up my page and visiting it.
Please don't send me paper QSL cards, I don't collect them and I don't use the bureau.
I do work with: LotW, eQSL, Clublog and QRZ.com.
My Polish call sign is 3Z5UY
My gear is:
(previously I used a Kenwood TS-430S and a Yaesu FT-991).
-
An LDG AT-200ProII antenna tuner,
- A 6-20 meter Hexbeam antenna made by SP1DX Waldi and is mounted on a Yaesu G-650C rotor. (Ant. 1). I use this one mainly during the daytime. Our son El'ad helped me putting it on our roof.
- A 10-80 meter full wave Skywire Loop antenna with a great 1:4 1kw Balun made for me by DL1GME Nelson. (Ant. 2) I use this one mainly at night.
- An improvised end fed random wire antenna mainly to experiment on the 160 meter band. (Ant. 3)
-
A Mydel MP-30SWIV power supply.
I got my D (technician) license in 1999 and my B (general) license in 2014.
Special thanks to my friends Amos 4Z1AB, Eli 4Z1NB and Dov 4Z4DX who helped me passing the last hurdle to get my B license.
I work with WSJT-X, JTAlert and the HRD logbook.
For time synchronising I use a great app by Mark Griffiths - G6KIZ:
"Network Time" (http://www.timesynctool.com) I tried several apps, but this in my opinion the best one.
I follow my LoTW QSLs on my Android smartphone with the N1KDO's LoTW Look when I am not using my laptop. (see: https://www.n1kdo.com/lotwlook/ )
My QTH is Kfar Yonah about 8 kilometers east of the city of Netanyah and about 8 kilometers west of the Palestinian town Tulkarem. The total width of Israel here is about 16 kilometers. We live about an hour drive by car north west of Jerusalem.
I am retired, before that I held management positions.
Things I like to do are biking and walking with our dog Mika. She is hyperactive and very territorial, so she keeps me busy.
eQSL and QRZ.com are uploaded automatically at the end of each QSO, LotW daily.
My first interest in the radio amateur hobby came from my mother M. Spanjaard. She was during the 2nd World War in the Dutch resistance a member of the Cock van Paaschen team and was their coder/decoder. They sent messages from the occupied Netherlands to London and their station was located in the Peace Palace - Vredespaleis in the Hague.
