DL1MC

Welcome and thanks for looking me up.  My name is Michael. I became an active ham in Germany in January 2023 holding an A class license.  I also hold a US Technician class license since 1997.

Regarding operating, I enjoy DXing and moderate Contesting as well as POTA. I operate SSB and Digital modes while slowly learning CW.

In my home QTH, I mostly operate our clubstation's FlexRadio 6700 remotely. On the high bands, the antenna is an Optibeam 9-5 for 20-10m or a Hy-Gain AV-640.  For the low bands we use a dipole antenna.  Our PA is an Expert 2k.

While portable and outdoor, I use my Yaesu FTdx10 and either a vertical end-fed or a JPC-7 dipole antenna.

Next to amateur radio, I am mountain biking, sailing my "O-Jolle" and continue practicing guitar.

QSL information: LOTW, e-QSL Bureau and Direct are valid modes. Genuine reports from short wave listeners (SWLs) are welcome as well - please include the opposite station's call in your report.  My logs are periodically uploaded to LOTW, e-QSL, Clublog, HamQTH, and HRDLog.

73,

Michael
