Thanks for visiting my page.
I have been interested in electronics since I was a kid. I remembered building a crystal ( galena ) radio at the age of 12 years.
Licensed amateur radio operator since 1.959, ( age of 14 years ) in a novice category as HK4PJ, operating from Medellín, with a homebrew AM transmitter with 6AQ5 final tube, 4 Watts output, Hallicrafters receiver and 40 meters dipole antenna. I still have the log from my first day in the air.
Over this lengthy time I have seen many changes and advancements in this hobby.
I studied electronics at Pontificia Universidad Javeriana in Bogotá, and computers and digital techniques at Phillips International Institute in Eindhoven, Netherlands. Now I am retired and living in La Calera in a country house, near ( 23 Km ) Bogotá. ( Grid: FJ34as ), since 2.013.
Stringing and tuning new wires is one of my favorite parts of the hobby. Also to repair vintage AM radios.
I uploaded to LoTW daily and highly recommended it. Please DO NOT send paper QSL cards.
FT8: If you do not receive " RR73 ", that means the contact was not completed and was not saved in the log.
