Biography

From my child time on I was interested in everything what called radio. The first radio's I could grab where made for the Citizen Band. Started with experimenting with wire antenna's next to my parent's house. Also in my Marco Excalibur I found the way to crank the power up. Later I started actively to listen to everything I could hear in the air. Soon I felt the need to follow a starters course at Radio amateur club PRAC. Don't know why but I waited till 2015 to get my Basic license; ON3GPP. When I left the building in Brussels I had a bad feeling and wanted instantly more. Therefore I went back to Brussels and on 29th of June 2016 got finally my Harrec A license. I had to changed my call to ON5GPP.

Start 2017 considering that I'm living in a flat on the 11th floor. Very nice view direction South ... but by building regulations, it is not allowed to install antenna's on my balcony ... :-(

So I bought an old service truck to make a beautiful mobile amateur radio shack ... hoping to work You all soon ...

About the place I live, ... we Belgian are know for our special beers, and (I hate the name) "French" fries, mussels, chocolate and the story about a boy and his dog which starts in Hoboken. And the statue in front of the Katherdraal of Antwerp where the story about the boy and the dog of Flanders ends.
