Hi dear! this is my homepage which will present you my different activities on 11 meters.
My first radio listenings began when I was 12 years old (in 1992). I had a little HF receiver and a long wire antenna.
In 1993, I used a little AM 40cx and started to speak on a mike.
It's in February 1994 that I bought a President Grant, MB+4 and a home made wire dipole antenna. few months later, I had the 3 elts Yagi. I catched the 11 meter virus and since this time, I turn on my transceiver every day. During the first years, I hunted DXCC and QSO's. I don't count DXCC confirmed now...it's not a challenge for me to have a big DXCC score. I prefer take time to active some things on radio like LOTA,COTA,MOTA,IOTA,DIFM,SES or little DXCC's.
At this moment, I actived 15 MOTA, 4 COTA, 5 LOTA, 10 DIFM (french islands), 5 IOTA, 7 DXCC, 3 IWI and some SES activations.
I love the portable spirit on radio... you bring your RTX, your battery or generator, little antenna and you are like Robinson Crusoe on his island...hahahah !
My equipment is composed of FT1000MP, MD1C8 with equalizer W2IHY, TL922 (1.2kw) and 4 elts yagi at 7 m up the ground. I'm not so active from my home and prefer transmitting in portable station or mobile. In portable, I can use a 4 elts yagi or a DXSR511DX when I need more reception. I use also a telescopic tower of 10 meters, rotator G1000dxc, amplifier KL500.
I have also annexe RTX and antennas for other frequencies (IC706mkiig, FT857d, FD4, 9elts yagi VHF, 17 elts yagi VHF, Verticale X510N for V&UHF,...).
Now that propagation is low, I want to active some islands in France & Europe. Maybe that in 2009-2010, we will plan for a DXCC...
