Amateur radio cannot be described in a nutshell.

Many of the so-called OM's --> "Old Man" or XYL's "Ex Young Ladies" are organized in Germany in the DARC "Deutscher Amateur Radio Club". There are good explanatory pages on the subject of amateur radio.

I started on 30.05.1998 with the call DG3MFW in FM. But from the 5th QSO I went qrv with my Commodore 64 and a self-soldered 1200Baud modem !!! Only a few years later I upgraded to 9600Baud with a self-soldered G3RUH modem.

Unfortunately, for private reasons, I didn't do anything for years and now, for the last 1 year, I have been working more intensively in the field of emergency radio. Now I haven't done anything for 2 months and now I have to collect everything again. That's why these pages are supposed to be my memory aid :-).

And now I'm playing with the FT8 mode and "had" to learn what an eQSL is :-). Including creating one, with reporting to www.eqsl.cc and other homepages.

AND how do you create a homepage in 2 languages, because with FT8 you can get around the world and well, English is the order of the day.
