Hello there,

I first began to listen a couple of months on the band with my SWL number, but i wanted to make my own qso's on the bands.
After a while I got my novice license in 2009.
Planning to upgrade this to the full license in near future.

Working with FT-950 25 Watts and a G5RV antenna.

On the picture is my first QSL card.
I get a lot of laughs from my callsign in the Netherlands, because the suffix KOE is dutch for cow.

In the picture it's me and my son Bram, the next generation radio amateur. When i am turning on my radio he's there next to me.
Bram is born 21-2-2003, and loves to listen on the bands.
Bram has now it's own Yaesu FRG-100 and SWL number NL-13523 .

This year i take my hobby with me on holiday and i am QRV from :

Reit im Winkl, Germany, Locator JN67FQ.

Call DO/PD3KOE
Rig : FT-897D, Antenna : Endfed for 10 - 160 Mtr or Buddistick

Hope to hear you sometime on the bands.

Ed ( and Bram )
