Something about me...

My name is Petteri, friendly name Pete. I was born in year 1986 in city of Vaasa. Nowadays I'm still living in Vaasa, together with my girlfriend Suvi and our son Oskari. I started my hobby with CB-radios year 1996 and have been active since it on CB and later onHAM-radio bands. I'm active on bands from my home QTH at Vaasa and from our summerhouse at city of Närpiö.

My interest to radios got started when i saw a movie called "Smokey & The Bandit", wich contains lot's of CB-radio activity. I got my first CB-radio from my father at age of 10. After that I heard about local SWL/DX-club and buyed a Selena reveicer for listening to shortwave radiostations. Of course there was some hams also on CB-band, they told me about local radioamateur club OH6AA and invited to visit their club.. It was awesome to take some second-operator QSO's from clubstation and then I decided what i want to be... A Ham-radio operator.

I got my first hamradio license 2004 at age of 18, novice priviledges with all bands and 100W of power. At year 2006 i studyed and complished the test to get full advanced privledges and from 2006 to nowdays my license is CEPT-Harec with full priviledges and 1.5kW power.

Member of SRAL - The Finnish Amateur Radio League and local radioamateur club OH6AA - Vaasan kuutoset.

My truely intrests in this hobby is having DX QSO's at phone, Field-days / DX-peditions, building and testing antennas and talking with local ham-friends. From this webpage you can find some info about my station, pictures and contact informations.

Hope to hear you on bands! 73 de OH6GZT Pete
