Josue “Josy” José Marín Rodríguez:
I was Born on September 27, 1975 in small town called Guaímaro at Camaguey province. My interest for the electronics, especially the radio communication, began early in the childhood observing my father working the electricity and assembling simple circuits.
I got my first amateur radio license “C L 8 J Y” in September of 1992 after building and putting on air my own 10 watts AM 160 meters transmitter from Amancio, a small town belonging to Las Tunas province. For the next year I built a 40 meters DSB transeiver; In this band my countries total score increase up as equal to the love for the CW. In 1994 I got the second license class “C M 8 J Y” being on the air from the Camaguey’s University Radio Club Station together one of my best friends, “C M 8 D M”, Doug, at present “C O 8 D M”. In 1996 I got my first class station license, “C O 8 J Y” spreading my radio operations to all amateur radio bands. In September of 1997 my own station, suffered a nice upgrade, I got and military radio come from de ex DDR, the SEG-15 from RFT. It run 15 watts in SSB, has an acceptable RX , and fantastic frequency stability from 1.8 MHz to 12 MHz. Lately in November, I was chosed to participate in the first multi-multi operation from Cuba; the T49C DXpedition together “S K 0 U X” radio club members in the CQWW CW contest. It was really amazing for me, and gave me the true vision and taste about amateurs radio contest.
In 1998 I met Steve, “K U 9 C” (in my opinion one of the best managers in the world), and he took the sponsoring of my station and the managing of my QSL cards. In 1999 I participated in ARRL 160 meters SSB Contest earning as price of my efforts with only 15 watts from my SEG-15, the plaque for the first world place in the low power category.
After that, I received the best gift of my life, a nice FT-757GXII from Steve solving the difference between a beginner and a normal station. In the 2000 year I got the second world place in ARRL 160 meters CW Contest and the third world place like member of T48RAC team in SSB ARRL of that year operating mainly in 160 an 40 meters, by away my favourite bands.
Due to the genius and the leader condition of my friend Raúl, “C O 8 Z Z”; was founded in 2001, “Las Tunas Contest Crew”, being Raúl, Doug and me its firsts members. We have operated always like T48K mainly from Punta Corella beach at any interesting contest from time to time.
Since I got my Electrical Engineering degree at Camaguey’s University in 1999, I has lived here, being my radio operations activities often limited for the constant moving in. Nowadays with my own residence at Camaguey city, I got my new call and I hope to appear on the air as frequently as always was. Since April 1st 2006 my call letters are “C O 7 R R” and always will be a pleasure to meet any of you in our amateur bands. Moreover if you has the possibility to visit my city, at “San Isidro 59 altos, e/ Hospital y Lugareño” be sure, you will be welcomed.
