Born 1974 in Osijek, Croatia. Began with electrical experimenting in early age (basic school), during formal education in electrotechnical highschool Tesla in Zagreb and faculty of electrical engeneering in Osijek I was gathering tech knowledge for my work and hobby. I have interest like electronics in general, audio electronics (pro and amateur), ham electronics and meassuring equipment building. Passing ham exam in 2006. my door to ham movement became openend. Work on HF bands have basis on digital modes (PSK andHELL sometime RTTY).

Currently I use Tentec Omni VII for SSB work connected with an 30 years old but restored Butternut HF6V vertical antenna for 80-10m bands. My antenna is located in my backyard near the house. My manpack rig called RU-20 ( croatian maded PRC-515 under Collins license) is primary unit for portable use and digi modes.

I also make restauration job on several pieces of HAM equipment. Currently I restore burnout Atlas 210x transceiver. I am trying to homebrew oneQRP SSB transceiver by my own design. QRP mode of work is my prefered because of TVI and other problems regarding QRO. During nights, when all pepoles are sleeping, I excite with full power RIG into my antenna.

Beside of bureau, I respond to all received QSL card with or whitout IRC or SASE, I also send confirmation QSL cards for SWL hams. I do not prefere eQSL.

For some time I was pretty interested in history of radar and radio comunications, and using these devices during WW2 on both sides and finaly how wirelles electronics influented on ordinary peoples life.

My ham nickname is Zare.
