I was born in 1953 in Bosanski Petrovac, Bosnia and Herzegovina, ex Yugoslavia.
I started amateur radio 1968.year at Radio Club YU4EBP. My first former personal call sign was YU4VCW/1971, then YU4CW/1974. I used YU4CW until 1990 when I stopped working due to the very complex situation in the former Yugoslavia.
I now live with my family in Zagreb, Republic of Croatia. By creating conditions for retirement, after a break of 27 years, in 2017 I renewed my license with a new callsign - 9A9CW - and am once again enjoying our QSOs on all BANDS.
I'm started with the Kenwood TS-850S and active again on the 80-10m bands as a radio operator. After 5 months I bought a TS-590SG and a TS-480SAT for portable work from the island of Vir. since 2023 I'm working and enjoy with station Yaesu FTDX-101D and other equipment
Now my setup is:
The 160m antenna is with a modified MFJ tuner on the roof under the 71m antenna. For the 80m and 40m ranges I have dipoles, Hex beam for 14-28MHz + WARC, and an EA antenna of 5 el. for 50MHz (as well as an EA of 5 el. for 70MHz in preparation). All antennas are connected with 1 coaxial cable via a GB-SW5 controller (HA7RY), now I do automatic antenna selection via an RS232 interface that controls the antenna selection via BAND-DATA with a Yaesu-FTDX101D, as well as a new Bluetooth interface for remote control of the Yaesu G-450c rotator with HRD Delux software. In 2023 I bought SPE Expert 1.3K-FA and now I enjoy the equipment and Ham Radio Deluxe (HRD) software.
As another hobby we love to travel. We love to visit foreign countries, get to know cultural and historical sights and, of course, take pictures. You can see some of them in our small photo album about the cities we traveled through and enjoyed on our trips.
