About me
1968 I joined the Hamradio population. My first former personal call sign was YU4VCW and after this YU4CW. YU4CW I used until 1990 when I stopped working due to a very complex situation in ex YU.
Now I live with my family in Zagreb, Republic of Croatia. After a 27 year hiatus, I renewed my license and got a new and current personal call sign in 2017 - 9A9CW and am active again on the 160-6m bands.
After 5 years
with the Kenwood line, I switched to
Yaesu FTDX-101d,
and now use 1.8-10MHz LW-antenna via a modified MFJ differential
T tuner on the roof under the LW antenna (see pictures), W3DZZ
for 3.5 and 7MHz, Hex beam for 14-50MHz + WARC, and EA antenna 5
el. for 70MHz (in construction), and I feed all antennas with 1
coaxial cable with
GB-SW5
Antenna Switch Controller (HA7RY),of course
this is now an automatic antenna switch, because my friend
Neno
9A5N
installed an interface that controls antenna selection via band
data with the Yaesu-FTDX101D, as well as the new G-450c rotator
remote control interface.
2023 I replace my old Kenwood
TL922 with SPE Expert
1.3K-FA and now enjoy with the Ham
Radio Deluxe (HRD) software along with the new Hybrid SDRs
(Narrow Band SDR & Direct Sampling SDR).
As another hobby, we like to travel. We
like to visit foreign countries, get to know cultural and
historical sights and, of course, take photos. You can see some
of them in our small photo album about the cities we traveled
through and enjoyed our travels.

YU4VCW-YURCW
In 1971, the II class (B) test was passed, a new personal call sign, and in 1974, the I class (A) test was replaced by the call sign YU4CW.
9A9CW
From 1990-2017 I stopped my radio amateurism and reactivated in 2017 with the new call sign 9A9CW on all HF bands.
