on march 29th, 2000 i got my ham radio licence. the first four years of my life a an amateur radio operator i
was only allowed to transmit on vhf/uhf. in february 2004 there was a change in the austrian law, so from this
time on i was permitted to be qrv on the hf-bands also.

most of the time i am active on the 20 meter-band. there i enjoy the digital modes, but also some ssb. due to
limited antenna-permission, i only have a small monoband-antenna for 14 mhz on the roof of the house.

that is the reason why i built a portable hamradio-box in january 2007. i got some inspirations for that construction
here. all the needed material was bought at the local diy-store and did not cost a fortune.
 

construction of the portable-case	portable at the kronbauer (jn77av)

the vhf/uhf-bands are not my favorite ones, there i am mostly active in aprs. the microphone of my vhf-equipment
is used only during sota-activations or when i hear a sota-station calling cq.
