My new passion these days is Golf and if u dont hear me often on the air its because i am doing some putting or driving practice!
We have a new golf course that has started in my home town.There are some lovely golf courses around in South India let me know if you want any info on them.
I am a die hard dx-erand have worked about 310 dxcc countries so far,the happiest moment in my 5 years of dxing was making the first qso from VU7LD/VU2PAI on 80 meters cw!and the year 2000-2001 is the first time i have been active on 160 meters.Also happy today ie:16th JAN 2003 as i just got my P5/4L4FN qsl! in the mail :-)
I am a member of Mangalore Amateur Radio Club (MARC), and our club is a very active club and we meet every month on the second sunday
(visiting Hams/Swl's are welcome to join us).
I have also been on the Governing council of the ARS
I(Amateur Radio Society of India) which is affiliated to the IARU.
We from the "VUIOTA" group have activated the IOTA group ( http://www.geocities.com/emailsrikanth/ham/iota/index.html )
AS-96 in May 2001 and a brand new island the Sacrifice Rock AS-161 in January 2002 which is a part of the Kerala State group
.Just activated IOTA AS169 Arnala island off the coast of Mumbai.
I am also a part of the team logging over 3000 qso's myself from the 2 islands :-).
We have also conducted several field day's in the last couple of years.
I try to qsl 100% , but sometimes my backlog plies up quite a bit if i have to leave the country for a couple of months!.
Kindly bear with me if there is any delay in replying to your qsl requests.Also kindly note mail is sometimes lost with green stamps in it specially from Japan and Italy,.
so stations from these places better send only IRC's when sending cards via direct to VU. If sending green stamps to VU please do so via registered air mail only.
