My name is Stein Roar Brobakken

a.k.a. RAG

Born : Oslo, 12th of March 1979, but grown up in Snertingdal / Reinsvoll
Hamradio: I'm a Radio Operateur or Radio Amatuer and that's my lifestyle and hobby

I do practice telegraphy since 1985 and shortwave contacts all over the world with simple antennas.

Station :

I do build most of my antennas either for my QTH or for DXPeditions. I am fan of phased array and simple verticals + wire yagies

Dxing:

I prefer do work dx, but I hate to get interupted by other station if I dont hear the DX...how can I get the call if lot of QRM
I'm hunting others stations around the world on the many frequencies we have got from the International Tele Union
if I don't have been in touch with that country before, this hunting we are called "DX-ing!".

CW?

I did start my carieer in 1986, only 7 years old with cw(Telegraphy).
