| In 1980 I succeeded in passing my ham-radio examaminations and got my novice license (D-license) with call-sign PD0KLX. In these years there were only 6 frequencies to use for novice and within 2 years a novice had to get a C-license. Within a year I changed my D-call PD0KLX for the bigger work: VHF-UHF en SHF. My call-sign changed to PE1JUZ. My shack grew and a with that also the amount of antennas on the roof and on the neighbours roof. Spring 2004 the C-license turned into A and now I can reach the whole world on HF (Short Wave radio); the call-sign still PE1JUZ . | |||

| I strarted in 1977 with an
illegal transmitter (radio pirate), transmitting music on FM-radio, soon
the 'real work' became more interesting. Through the VERON (part of IARU)
I got a registration as official monitoring station and soon after I
bought my first receiver, an old militairy BC-312N to listen to radio
amateurs, ships, planes and broadcast from far away. This hobby extended
by sending monitoring reports on beautifull cards, so called QSL-cards.
The recipient responded with sending with his QSL-card, thus getting a
large collection of beautifull cards from all over the world. Monitoring
stations in early morning or late at night helped me getting reports from
many countries and weird places like Alaska, Greenland and Morokulien,
but also of great people like late president Hussein from Jordany, who's
callsign was JY1.
