A little bit about me!

was first licensed in 1978 as VK6NEX and in late 1979 I became VK6IR. I was active from 1978 to 1986, and again from 2008 until now. Mostly interested in chasing DXCC and contesting,

Over the last few years I have been working on achieving 9 Band DXCC all digital. Currently I have managed to confirm 8 bands leaving me with 160 meters, this might be a life long challenge to finish, currently sitting on about 50.

With only 8 Entities left to work (see map) I hope to work KH1 later this year.

Eqsl

eQSL.cc is the first and only global electronic QSL card exchange for amateur radio operators and SWLs. It is designed to be the fastest, easiest, and cheapest way to exchange QSO confirmations, eliminating the cost and time that regular QSL cards have required for the past half century.
