CQRLOG 2.5.0 has been released
After a really long time, we have a new version. Packages for Bionic, Focal, and Groovy are ready to go. For the first time, there is also an official arm64 release.

New antenna holder is ready
It took some time but custom holder is on the roof. Everything took about 4 hours but the holder can handle even multband yagi. Maybe one day… .
Vertical is down
I had to put down my multiband vertical because of roof planed roof repair. I’ve been using it for 14 years and it worked fine. Last years there were some problems with SWR but nothing what I could not fix. It should takes about three months and I’ll put it back. New place should be […]
Activity from OKFF-1952 – Nerestský lom
Another nice trip with my youngest son Dan. The OKFF-1952 Nerestský lom was close to our destination. Finally, we made 50 QSO on CW. There are a few photos.
Activity from OKFF-1571 Jiřina
My first activity this year. The OKFF-1571 is about 7km on food from my QTH. We had a sunny day and after a very busy week, I need some time to relax :). I already had LiPol battery charged, packing KX3, EFHW antenna, paddle and other stuff was ready in a few minutes.
OK2CQR is back
After two years as OK7AN I dediced to return to the old callsgin. The new one was good, quite short but I could not get used to it, maybe because I had been using OK2CQR for over 20 years. The decision was made, from 1st of May 2019 I returned to the air with OK2CQR.
100th anniversary of the Czechoslovak Republic
We celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Czechoslovak Republic (Czechoslovakia) on October 28, 1918. I’ll be one of the special callsigns on the air. You can get very nice award for QSO with OL100 callsigns. I’ll be active as OL100C. More information about the award is on OKDXF website related to this event.
New toy landed on my desk
I had been dreaming about this radio for long time. Finally the dream comes truth and the Elecraft KX3 is on my desk. It takes some time to adapt to a new radio but right now I can say, it has the best receiver I’ve ever had!
QCX QRP Transceiver
I ordered this excellent QCX QRP TRX from QRP Labs (40m band version) at the beginning of December 2017 and had to wait almost two months but finally got it. Order volume of this kit was (and is) extremely high. You’ll get very good radio for very low price. Especially the RX is really good.
