I'm licensed since 1983 and started as a CW enthusiast and High Speed Telegraphy competitor. Soon I discovered the thrill of contesting, learning how to work a contest as a regular member of the contest teams at ON4UN. I am still a referee at the IARU world championships in High Speed Telegraphy and like CW most of all. My home is in the south of Germany where I recently moved to the countryside to have a place for our hobby. I'm self-employed and work as consultant on data privacy and information security. It's a great honor to be participating at a WRTC event again after so many years - the bronze medal in Finland in 2002 was a long time ago.
