Here you can read a little about me and my stations. The name is Anders Karlsson and I got my signal SM6POP in the mid-80s. My QTH is Åmål in beautiful Dalsland whose harbor is the subject of my QSL card. Welcome to my shack, the stations I currently use are: Shortwave - 50MHz, SSB and CW, Icom IC-7300. Shortwave - 50MHz, digital traffic modes, Icom IC-7400 + Signalink 2m -70cm, FM, SSB and CW, Yaesu FT-897 69MHz, Anytone AT-588 Spare station Icom IC-746 Shortwave - 50MHz - 2m and 70cm in the car, Icom IC-706MKII-G Remote station Icom IC-706MKII-G and Remoterig Amplifiers: ES Radiotel HLA 300 Plus HP500, 500w short wave Huttinger 139844, 1.1KW short wave Dentron Clipperton L, 1KW short wave Tokyo HiPower HL-180V, 180w VHF Vintage: Drake R4 and T4X from 1965 was my first HF station which I bought at SRS in 1986. After gathering dust since the mid 90s it is now newly refurbished and ready to go again. A C-line is also newly renovated and has been given its place in the shack. Shortwave, 2m and 69MHz in the boat house, Yaesu FT-450, TYT TH-9000 and Ericsson C-702 My antennas can you read more about under the Antennas and Remote station.

In order for our hobby to be as pleasant as possible, it might be a good idea to adhere to some rules about how to behave on the bands. A radio amateur must be tolerant. We share frequencies with many other people, some of whom will not have the same opinion as you. We don't talk derogatorily about people. Be mindful of what you say and avoid discussing topics that may seem upsetting or offensive. Topics that should be avoided are religion and outlook, political ideology, or economic social issues etc. where opposing parties may have strong opinions which do not necessarily match your own. We completely avoid profanity, sex words and the like. Understand that everyone may not have the same skills, experience and more. Act humbly towards other people on the bands. If you or someone else gets upset, avoid acting on it, instead behave like an adult in such situations and try to calm the situation down. Stations that deliberately interfere are ignored, attention usually only makes the problem worse. L call before sending and ask if the sequence is available if you are unsure. Also listen a few khz above and below the frequency you intend to use so you don't disturb ongoing traffic near your frequency. Call correctly and exit correctly. A matörradion is mainly for technical discussions of a purely private nature or of general interest for the hobby, tests and exams and more. Approach to DX traffic I listening and listening and listening again before calling the DX station. I calling The DX station only if I can perceive the DX station properly. I don't trust the DX cluster but be sure of the DX station's callsign before I do calling The DX station. I do not disturb the DX station or anyone who calling The DX station and I never transmit on the DX station frequency vid split-QSO I waiting for the DX station to finish a contact before I calling . I always enter my entire signal. I does not call DX station continuously. After calling the DX station, I listen carefully. I calling not when the DX operator answers another call sign, not mine. I answers or calling not when the DX operator asks for a signal that is not mine. I calling not when the DX station is requesting geographic areas other than mine Are there more stations waiting to finishI my QSO with the DX station as soon as we exchange the necessary information unless the DX station expressly wants to conduct a longer QSO with me.

My remote station Here is some information about my remote station. The mast stands on a hill outside Åmål about 1km from home. The main antenna is an 80m dipole set up as an inverted V and with step feed. I also have other antennas in the mast, which is also equipped with a sled. The steps from the dipole go into these baluns that I built and the feed then continues as coax into the autotuner, The antenna can be tuned without problems on all bands from 160m to 10m. The station consists of an IC-706MKIIG, remote control from Remoterig and a 4G router. The autotuner comes from MFJ. There is also a Windows computer with Chrome remote desktop installed so I can get into the router's and Remoterig's web interface, pull out the antennas and control the antenna switch from home. The remote station also has a Web-SDR that I connected with my radio at home with the help of Omnirig so they follow each other in frequency, mode and mute at tx. The SDR receiver is an Air Spy and the software is Spy Server installed on a Windows computer. The software at home is SDR Console also installed on a Windows computer and with the screen mounted directly above my station. I can broadcast with the station at home and listen to interference-free reception with waterfall and spectrum scope from the remote station. Remote control of antenna contacts in case of thunder. Around the remote station, there is a collaboration with Åmål Municipality so that it can be used in social crises. At the moment we are working on a solution to be able to control it via radio link and thus be independent of the internet. Reserve power for the power supply is also underway. The station also has a special signal - 8S6K

Telegraphy or CW as we often call it was invented by the artist Samuel Morse. Samuel Morse (1791-1872) The telegraph was the first means of communication via radio and is still very effective today in making contact with other radio amateurs all over the world. In the past, there was a requirement for telegraphy knowledge to get your amateur radio certificate, which has not been the case since 1971. Even though the requirement is no longer there today, I recommend everyone to learn cw. For the beginner, there are some links below to use to train your ability to master the art of making connections using the telegraphy method. Please visit the Radio School which is really good.

QRolle Here are some pictures and information about the QRolle Classic that I built. QRolle Classic is a QRP station for SSB on the bands 20m and 80m. It can also be easily further developed for CW traffic. OROlle is designed by SM6DJH Olof Holmstrand. All construction information is available on the internet, so it is still possible to build your own QRolle. The page where all the information is available is http://qrolle.thulesius.se/ Visit the page and be inspired to build your own QRolle.
