GERMAN AMATEUR RADIO STATION

 

 
 

Hi !

I am Sigi from Sömmerda.
In 1941 I was born in the city of Leipzig.

You guessed right, my hobby is Amateur Radio :-)

I got my license in 1960. My first call sign was (as co-operator at a club-station) DM3ZBM. This was the normal procedure in the former GDR.

In the year 1965 I received my private call DM2CFM. With this call I was authorized to operate from my home.

1970 I moved from Leipzig into the Erfurt-district and got my next call DM2CZI.

During the year 1978 I used the special call DT2CZI.

In the year 1980 all call signs in the GDR got the new "Y" prefix and I became Y23ZI.

Immediately after the breaching of the Wall I applied for my actual call DL3AMA.

Since 1992 y used on business trips also the polish call SO6AMA.

Actually you can find me on all bands from 160m - 10m, 6m, 2m and 70cm.

My locator is JO51ND. On all bands I use the maximum legal power.

I enjoy DX QSO's on 6m.

I prefer SSB, but like CW too. (Since 1964 I am member of the High-Speed-Club)

You also can find me in the RTTY-mode.

Now I am retired and can enjoy my hobby every day.

Also I am QSL-manager of YV5EU (previously: DL2GG/YV5) in Caracas, Venezuela.

 

During the 2006 soccer-world-cup I was responsible for the special call DQ2006X.

When I am in my radio shack, our little dog "DGØDOG" is mostly present. :-)
