I first got Novice ticket in 1972 at the age of 14. I am aged 49. Life
seems to be too short to enjoy DXing sincerely.
Amateur Radio is a never-ending journey, because (as for true
travelers in ancient times), its aim is not the destination, but the
journey itself.
My experience has been rewarding in many ways, mainly from a human
point of view.
I have made friends that have become life-time friends.
We have always tried.
By trying to improve ourselves, we have shared opinions and knowledge
with others.
I started more than 35 years ago, when I was Jr. high-school student,
and still the excitement as it were the first day.
That's why I love Ham Radio.
