Born in Z2-land (then called Rhodesia), I moved to South Africa in 1980, passing my radio exam and CW test in school at the age of 15 in 1983. I currently reside in Pretoria (capital city, QTH altitude around 1 550m).
I enjoy HST CW, contesting, building HF antennas and participating in dxpeditions.

Replaced in December 2014 by an 8 element LogP on a big 75 foot ladder...


My other major hobby is wildlife photography, spending a large amount of my free time in Botswana, Namibia and Kruger National Park in South Africa.

I was issued the call sign TF3JB on January 14, 1974; license No. 80 in Iceland. During 1995-2012 I was QRV as TF2JB, but moved back to Reykjavík in August 2012 and became TF3JB again. Privileges include all bands, all emission types and full RF power.
I have been a member of our national association, Icelandic Radio Amateurs, Í.R.A., more or less since 1973. During that time I have had the opportunity to participate in various activities of this great hobby and most recently finished serving four terms as the association's president (2009-2013).
When we lived in the United States (1990-1995) I was granted a reciprocal license by the FCC (one of the last such licenses issued before CEPT). During that time, I completed my postgraduate studies in NYC and CT along with Helga María, my XYL. We both loved the time in the States.
QSL cards are important. A QSL card is sure via bureau or direct for TF3JB, TF3JB/1 and TF2JB. If you QSL direct, kindly include a self-addressed envelope with: 
  • 1 IRC or 2 USD for countries in Europe.
  • 1 IRC or 3 USD for countries outside Europe. (2 USD will still suffice for 2nd class mail, but may take 5-6 weeks, or longer).
Direct cards are mailed off on the same day received by First Class Air Mail. I do not use E-QSLs, LoTW or the QRZ Logbook system.
My grid square is HP94bc. However, when QRV as TF3JB/1 (from the summer house at Swan Lake) the grid square is HP94ma.

AMATEUR RADIO IN ICELAND
By Jónas Bjarnason, TF3JB
  • Amateur radio in Iceland, in brief 
  • The 10 call areas
  • The most active DX stations from TF



Part 1: Amateur Radio in Iceland, in brief
ICELAND IS A REPUBLIC.  We became independent on June 17, 1944. Prior to that we had been subjects of the King
of Denmark and earlier, the King of Norway. Population is approx. 330.000 (June 2015). Total land area is 103.000  
square kilometers. Much of the country is uninhabitable because of glaciers, volcanoes and sand deserts. The native language,
Icelandic, is closely related to old Norse. Weather-wise, Iceland benefits from by the Gulf Stream and has a temperate climate
despite a high latitude just outside the Arctic Circle.
    
View from the TF3JB/1 summer house at Swan Lake QTH in July 2015.
1. BANDS.  In addition to the "usual" bands we have the following band privileges in TF:
  • 630 meter band (472-479 kHz); as of January 16, 2013 (on primary basis).
  • 160 meter band (1850-2000 kHz) in addition to 1810-1850 kHz, as of January 6, 2011, 1kW in contests.
  • 60 meter band (5260-5410 kHz) CW and USB; as of January 2, 2008. And, PSK-31, as of June 12, 2012.
  • 4 meter band (70.000-70.200 MHz); as of February 19, 2010.
2. LICENSING.  There are two license classes based on the HAREC requirements. The basic license is an N-license and the
full license is the G-license. A basic TF license holder is easily identified, since the suffix of such a call sign will always have
three letters, ending with the letter "N". For example: "TF3XXN". The basic licensee is limited to 100 Watts and has less
band privileges. G-licensees have all bands, all emission types and and full RF power (1kW).
3. NUMBER OF LICENSEES.  Over 475 TF call signs had been issued by July 2015, since the first regulation on amateur
radio in Iceland took effect on February 7, 1947.
4. Í.R.A.  Our national association is Íslenskir radíóamatörar, Í.R.A. It was founded on August 14, 1946. We will thus
commemorate our 70 years annaversary next year, 2016. Currently, our assocciation has approx. 200 members. We are
proud of our YL's and they now have their own TF-YL chapter (founded in May 2015). The Í.R.A. headquarters is located in
Reykjavík and there is an open house for members and guests every Thursday, from 20:00 hours.
5. IOTA NUMBERS AND CQ & ITU ZONES.  There are 3 different IOTA numbers allocated to TF:
  • EU-021 is allocated to Iceland (the country itself).
  • EU-071 is allocated to Vestmannaeyjar (and surrounding islands).
  • EU-168 is allocated to the other many islands around Iceland (except for Vestmannaeyjar islands).
TF is located in CQ Zone 40 and ITU Zone 17.
6. CALL AREAS.  Look for a map of the 10 TF call areas further down the page (in Part 2).
7. DX ACTIVITY FROM TF.  Still further down (in Part 3) you will find a discussion about DX activity from Iceland.

Part 2: The TF call areas
Iceland is divided into 10 call areas. Prior to 1981, the call areas (and prefixes) TF1, TF8, TF9 and TF0 were not in use. At that
time, some of those call areas were also differently allocated, geographically. For example, the current TF8 call area used to be
TF2 call area, etc. Most activity is to be expected from the TF3 call area which is Reykjavík (and the vicinity, but approx. 70%
of the population lives in that geographical area.

The map depicts the TF call areas and also shows the three IOTA numbers assigned to the country; EU-021, EU-071 and EU-
168. The call areas are geographically based on local municipalities. If you would like information in detail about the call areas,
feel free to send me an E-mail: jonas.bjarnason.hag@gmail.com  Thanks to TF2MSN for the map.



Part 3: The most active stations from TF in DX
INTRODUCTION.  
In July, 2015 just over 200 TF call signs were listed on QRZ.COM. Of that number, 36 call signs (18%) had more than
10.000 [accumulated] look-ups. Supposedly, these are the stations most active in DX from Iceland.Taking a closer look
at those 36 call signs, I was able to examine the following variables: (1)
  • Type of primary transceiver.
  • Type of primary linear amplifier (if applicable).
  • Type of primary antenna.
  • Primary activity by emission mode.
  • Age of licensee.
  • QTH by call area.
    
The TF3IRA SteppIR 3E Yagi antenna photographed in the winter sun in December 2014.
RESULTS
Type of transceiver.  The transceivers favored are from Icom and Yaesu; each brand has a 33% stake. Other brands: Kenwood
(18%), Elecraft (15%), FlexRadio and Apache Anan (3%) and Other (3%).
Linear amplifier.  About 78% of this group use/own a linear amplifier. The most popular brands: Acom, Yaesu and Other
(surplus, home brew, etc.); each with a 12% stake. Ameritron, AMP Supply and SPE have each a 6% stake. Other brands:
Alpha, Dentron, Drake, Elecraft, Emtron, Heathkit, Icom, Kenwood and OM Power.
Antennas.  52% use directional antennas, 27% wire antennas and 21% verticals. The most popular directional antennas are
from SteppIR, OptiBeam and HexBeam. Other directional antennas (in primary use) are from Fritzel, Hy-gain, UltraBeam,
XY antennas or homebrew. The most popular wire antennas are Cobwebbs, Deltas/loops and Long wires. Verticals: Butternut,
Cushcraft, New-tronics Hustler, SteppIR, Zerofive and home brew.
Mode of emission.  SSB is the favored mode with a 41% stake. Digital modes (RTTY, PSK, etc.) have a 33% share, and CW
has a 26% share.
Operator age.  Average age of this group is 58 years. Most operators are between 50-59 years of age (47%).
Call areas.  Most operators reside in the TF3 call area (70%). Ample DX activity is though also to be expected from TF2, TF4,
TF5 and TF8 call areas.
DXCC and WAZ.  Approx. 24% of the group have acquired the DXCC award and one WAZ award.
The outcome in a nutshell:
  • A DX station is most likely to encounter a TF station operating on SSB.
  • The TF station will most likely either be using an Icom or a Yaesu transceiver;
  • the TF station will most likely use or own a linear amplifier;
  • and will likely be using a directional antenna;
  • and will probably live in the TF3 call area; and
  • the operator age will likely be between 50-59 years.
Questions/comments are welcome. 73 de Jónas, TF3JB.

(1) Additional data needed were acquired from sources outside the QRZ.COM website.


September 1, 2015 addendum:
The following three TF call signs had the most [accumulated] lookups on QRZ.COM during the first 8 months of 2015
(i.e. during January-August):
  1. TF2MSN.  Primary activity: SSB; secondary: Digital modes.
  2. TF3JB.  Primary activity: CW; secondary: SSB.
  3. TF5B.  Primary activity: Digital modes; secondary: SSB.

I'll be back to Fernando de Noronha from 26 thru 31 August 2015, as PY0F/PP1CZ.
See you on the air.
 
Take some minutes to look at photographs following, hope you enjoy it.
PY0F/PP1CZ confirmations only via direct or OQRS. No LoTW or bureau available , I haven't outgoing QSL bureau in my State. 
If you worked ZZ0TA - Trindade Island DX-Pedition in April 1990, the Log is available at the ClubLog.
If you check any of my Logs in ClubLog and not found your call, send me an e-mail with the QSOs details. 
I'm sorry, but I have no longer an out going QSL Bureau in my State, QSLs from PY0F/PP1CZ and other DX-Peditions are available only via direct or OQRS (Log is available at ClubLog). If you're sending via direct, please avoid IRC, it's hard to exchange here.


The new QSL of PY0F/PP1CZ and older Callsings I used in Fernando de Noronha Island. Hope you enjoy it.


















My poor conditions. The antennas in PY0F/PP1CZ (January/2013), improvised, but works well.


That is my work conditions in PY0F/PP1CZ during January 2013.
The Rig were inside the room. That's why I didn't use SSB, I would disturb my family.

Operating time as PY0F/PP1CZ in January/2013 and the follow picture show the operation in July/2013 (using the structure of PY0FF antennas and station).

Here is a picture of the antennas I used in July 2013 and January 2014 from Fernando de Noronha Island - PY0F/PP1CZ. There are a A4S (04 elements Yagi to 10, 15 and 20 Meters) - the 02 elements Yagi to 40 Meters you see in the top of the tower was not working (as you might see, one of it's elements is missing a tube), as well as the A4S Rotor (the antenna is fixed all the time to north direction). The antennas and the radio shack belongs to PY0FF (thank you Andre and Morena for allow me use it). I chose a picture from a cloudy day, because it is better to view the antennas.




2011 Monaco F1 Racing GP - my first (but not the last) and wonderful experience in 3A land
(Thanks to my friends 3A2MD - Laura and 3A2ND - Jean-Claude).
6 Meters Beacon is back in 50.085 KHz. The rig is a homebrew equipment. Call: PP1CZ, running about 10/20 Watts into a Vertical 5/8 antenna.
I do answer QSLs only via direct, or OQRS (pp1cz@terra.com.br). No more bureau in my State. If you want to apply via direct, please, do not forget to include SASE.
My equipments now are:IC 7800, IC 7600, IC 7000, FT 1000 MP, and an IC 820H to VHF/UHF.
Amplifiers: Acom 2000A, Yaesu FL 2100Z.
Antennas: 6M2WLC (9 elements Yagi to 6 Meters), A3WS (3 elements Yagi to 12 and 17 Meters), TH7 (7 elements Yagi to 10, 15 and 20 Meters), Dipole to 30, and another Dipole to 40/80 Meters. Half Sloper to 160 Meters Band.
I started as amateur radio in back 1983. My former call was PU1AAJ, and didsome DX-Peditions and operations, as following:
- Trindade Island (PY0T), using the call ZZ0TA - April 1990, with Patrick, PP1BG (SK).
- Fernando de Noronha Island (PY0F), using the call PP0F - October 1991, with Kazik, DJ0MCZ.
- Fernando de Noronha Island (PY0F), using the call PU0F - October 1992, with Peter, PY5CC (now PP5XX), Andre, PY0FF and PY2KP, Claudio.
-Fernando de Noronha Island (PY0F), using the call PP0F - April 1995, with Bell, PY1YT (now PY1EO)
-Fernando de Noronha Island (PY0F), using the call PY0F/PP1CZ in October 1994, November 1996 and January 2013.
- Tres Ilhas (IOTA SA 067) in 1994 using the call ZZ1CZ. This was the first operation from this IOTA Group Islands.
- Abrolhos Archipelago (IOTA SA 019) as PY0B and PY0A in 1994.
- Itaparica Island (IOTA SA 023) as PY6/PP1CZ in 1991.
- Some special calls I use in the past are: ZZ1CZ, ZW1CZ, PP4P, PR100/PP1CZ, PY500B, PW1Z, ZZ1AA, ZV1CZ.
- I also operated from other Countries as DJ/PP1CZ and LX/PP1CZ/P.
See you on the Bands.
73 from PP1CZ - Leo.

I am an engineer working in the oil business and I am also active as 7Z1JA.
For QSL's sent direct to Bahrain, please include $2 US for return postage (NO IRC's).  You may QSL via the Texas, USA address for KE5JA, but cards will only be answered several times a year when I am home. (IRC's are OK for QSL's sent to my Texas address)
Also QSL via LOTW or via the USA QSL Bureau for KE5JA.  Cards sent to the USA Bureau will be forwarded to me in Bahrain when I am not in Texas.  (Bahrain does not have a QSL Bureau).
I will reply to all QSL's received.
