Hi, I'm Goksin Y. Kivanc

I was born in Samsun in 1964. I started this hobby with CB radio in 1985. I joined the Alfa Tango group in Asti, Italy and worked in the 11m band with my call sign 116 AT 135. I got my Class A license in 1992 and have worked with my TA6B call sign ever since. My profession Computer software, hardware and web design. I worked in Samsun Governorship Computer Department for many years and retired in 2011

I also enjoy participating in contests. You hear me more in digital modes in recent years. I usually try to be active in all HF, VHF and UHF bands. I especially like communication in FT8 - FT4 - RTTY - PSK and SSB modes. I don't like to use amplifiers and only have a maximum power of 100 Watts. I think there is no need for high power in digital modes. Please do not hesitate to call if my signals reaches your QTH. Well, best wishes to you and your family. Thank you also for visiting my page. 73! and Good DX's

* TA6B is my first and only call sign since 1992.
