EUDXF welcomes Michael, SV1MO, as a new member…

I was born in Lesvos Island in 1950. At the moment I am living in Glyfada which is a municipality close to Athens. Professionally I was manufacturer dealing with ceramics and tiles, mostly exporting them. Since 2010 I have retired.

In amateur radio I have been active since 1979 when I got my license and in the last few years I have been involved with DXing, trying  (selectively), to fill some “slots”. I am active at SSB-CW and various  DIGI modes, on HF bands. I participate in several contests just only for needed countries, modes, bands. Moreover I am interested in the exchange of classic paper QSL cards mostly via bureau. However I confirm QSOs via LOTW, e-QSL, and upload my logs at  QRZ, Hamlog, Clublog etc.

I am a member of RAAG and several other foreign clubs and organizations like EUDXF, EPC, MDXC, 30MDG, DMC,HPC etc.

EUDXF introduces Ingrid W7ISG as a new member

My exposure to HAM radio began when I married Reinhard, DL1UF. He took me to HAM meetings/conventions and to Field Days abroad and here in the US. I quickly figured out that amateur radio is an enormous source of fun, gratification as well as a link to wonderful friendships that are spanning the globe.

My main interests in radio revolve around contesting and DXing. Over the years, I’ve participated in many HF/VHF/UHF activities and done quite well in contests.

Since I’m working in the medical field at a hospital, I appreciate the importance of Emergency Communication. When the ARRL promoted the National Parks on the Air (NPOTA) event in connection with the Centennial of the National Park Service last year, which in effect was a tremendous display of what Emergency Communication is capable of, I got bitten by the “competitive bug” again and ended up ranking number three nationally among 1,492 Park Activators.

The attached picture is from a NPOTA activation at the Mount Rushmore National Memorial just about a year ago.

EUDXF introduces Roberto “Bob” PB5X as a new member

My name is Roberto “Bob”, callsign PB5X.  I love to DX on HF and meet up with people all over the world. 
In the last couple of years I had the oppurtunity to not only meet some hams on the airwaves but also face to face. 
For that reason I had several eyeball QSO’s with stations in HS0, YB0, YB9, 9H, PA, A61, ON, K1, I, LX, MJ …. 
So with this great hobby the sky is the limit (literally as i flew with Jerry PH9HB/AM to 9H 😉 ).

I also love to call into several pile ups to work that special rare DXCC that i still need for my DXCC score but of course I love to ragchew as well. Specially with our friends from North america….!

Besides working DX I love to be the DX station as this is another ball game than shouting in the pile up. That is why i had the oppurtunity to broadcast from YB9, YB0, 9H, MJ, LX  etc… as a holiday station but also as a member of the Low Land DX team (www.lldxt.eu).
So as I really love to DX I am hoping to catch you on the airwaves some day and have a wonderfull QSO or even an eyeball QSO.

If you want to know more about me or my station please go to http://www.qrz.com/db/pb5x or www.pb5x.com

Roberto “Bob” – PB5X
