PJ4EVA

MW0JZE G3TXQ-Hexbeam

Amateur radio has been a part of my life since I met Steve. Though, funnily enough, it was my mother that took the chance to go on air before I did in 1983 when Steve set up a portable station at my parents' summer house, just south of Stockholm. It is a cherished moment of my late mother's fearlessness of trying something new.

I received my most recent licence as PJ4EVA in June 2019 and am mainly active using FT8 and FT4.

Pj4EVA Station
Transceiver: Icom IC-7300
Antennas: MW0JZE G3TXQ-Hexbeam (6-band) at 14m above ground; inverted-V dipole at 16.5m for 40m; quarter-wave vertical for 40m; inverted-V dipole for 30m; a quarter-wave vertical with ground radials for 80m.

Contests

I first started contesting using FT4 in 2021 with Steve and we were, and continue to be, very successful as a team. In August 2022 I decided to enter the World Wide Digi DX Contest using my own callsgn in the Low Power, Single Operator section on 20m. The conditions were not great so I am very happy to have come 2nd in South America and 8th in the world!

I was not very active on the air from Kota Kinabalu and mainly used the station to keep in contact with Steve when he was on a DXpedition. Nevertheless I worked some good DX from Sabah including 3B7C, 4W6A, 5A7A, S21XA, T32AJ, T32BJ, T32C, T32CI, T32MI, T32SI, T32VI, VK9DNX, VU7RG, VU7MY, XW8XZ, Z22JE and ZL8X. Below are a few of my exotic QSL cards!
