Hello from ZS6SJ

Post by ZA6SJ » Fri Jan 10, 2025 3:43 pm

Hi everyone,

My name is Stefan, and i am from South Africa. I am a 31 year old male working in full time research, running a project on snake venom :D .

I did my HAM Radio exams at the end of 2023, and registered my DMR ID at the end of 2024. I am running a Baofeng DM-1701 with OpenGD77. I mainly started the hobby in order to do it with my brother. He runs the Anytone 878, and has a Anytone base station at home with an antenna mounted on the outside.

I love the hobby and just making new contacts and friends. I also like the challenge of making contact with my brother on longer range, and pushing the limits and experimenting with the equipment.

I am looking forward to exploring the hobby with you guys and girls.

I also just want to say a very big thank you to the developers of OpenGD77. You guys have done an amazing job, thank you! :)

P.S.: i registered my callsign incorrectly on the forum. It is ZS6SJ, not ZA6SJ, how can i change it?
