Three new countries in last three days!

28 September 2015

Last three days were amazing! The propagation was really good and I made three new countries - E6, T2 and 3D2KM. Especially operators of the E6GG did very good job. Almost no QRM on their freq, no cops and excellent operating. I made QSO in last two days of the expedition. Thank you! Also T2GC expedition has very good ears but especially on 40M when I heard the noise created by some EU stations, I couldn't be polite. Even my wife asked me what is happening, because I used rude words to describe what I hear.  What makes me happy is Z21MG expedition by David, OK6DJ and others. Good work guys!

25 September 2015

I spent lot of time developing CQRLOG and HamQTH and didn't have time to update my personal website. It took me some time but now it's finished. The website is running on Joomla 3 with a bootstrap template. It should be responsive and faster than before. Now I can write a few new articles and post them more often not only once a year :).

Interview with me on Linux in the Ham Shack

Details

14 May 2014

Petr-OK2CQRIn this episode, we have a great interview with Linux software developer and ham radio enthusiast from the Czeck Republic, Petr Hlozek – OK2CQR. He is the author of CQRlog and HamQTH.com. Unfortunately, Petr’s audio was a little hot and nothing we could do made it better. Our sincerest apologies. Sound problems aside, we hope you enjoy this fascinating look into the life and mind of an Open Source ham.
