Hello, my name is **Dominic** and I maintain this website.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I am a licensed ham radio operator since 2019 and my callsign is **OE7DRT**.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
My QTH is **[Längenfeld]**, [Tyrol], [Austria]. The locator for that is [JN57lb].
|
|
|
|
|
|
There is currently no antenna set up at my home QTH so I operate portable only
|
|
|
|
|
|
since the end of 2021---I've not been very active recently but I'm sure my new
|
|
|
|
|
|
lightweight equipment can help me out on that matter.

## Some status information
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I publish new articles whenever time let me do it. As I am working 10h shifts a
|
|
|
|
|
|
day on a building site I am quite worn at the end of the day and I can't gather
|
|
|
|
|
|
myself up enough to go out in the field when I'm just hungry (and tired)
|
|
|
|
|
|
:tired_face:
|
|
|
|
|
|
I do not have an antenna set up at my home QTH so my experience relies on my
|
|
|
|
|
|
portable operations here in this mountainous region. I enjoy some walks every
|
|
|
|
|
|
now and then but I can't carry my 16 to 18 kilograms portable equipment always
|
|
|
|
|
|
with me---specially not after a work shift.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
So that is the reason that my website grows very slowly, I haven't even found
|
|
|
|
|
|
the time to write something nice about my used
|
|
|
|
|
|
[equipment]({{< ref "equipment" >}}), but occassionally I take the time
|
|
|
|
|
|
to update this or that...

## Repeaters near my QTH
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Those are the repeaters around my home, which is around 1180m
|
|

|

|
|
|
|
|
|
For now, I only own some handheld radios for VHF/UHF so I do not reach
|
|
|
|
|
|
those repeaters from my terrace. I can sometimes open the first two repeaters.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I scan those repeaters when I'm hiking and I can sometimes hear them, but they
|
|
|
|
|
|
are mostly around <kbd>S0</kbd> to <kbd>S1</kbd> combined with a lot of noise
|
|
|
|
|
|
and when I try to reply I won't get picked up so easy (still 5W).

## About this website
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
My website is a personal storage of a set of information about many different
|
|
|
|
|
|
things---mostly about amateur radio and linux'isch computerstuff. The main goal
|
|
|
|
|
|
of my blog is for my personal usage. That is because some articles may not
|
|
|
|
|
|
explain everything---I hope I can reproduce a working setup (for me) with all
|
|
|
|
|
|
the steps provided in these articles.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I could have saved some links in my bookmarks, right? Well, I have. But I do
|
|
|
|
|
|
that now for a long time and it sometimes happens, that one or another link
|
|
|
|
|
|
becomes unavailable and hosting my own set of information does not result in
|
|
|
|
|
|
these situations in any way. As long as I'm willing to host them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can use the information on these pages for yourself. Just keep in mind, that
|
|
|
|
|
|
some of them may not be very objective or even accurate. The opposite is true.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I fill them with my opinions and experiences; some with solutions---some not.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
_Also, keep in mind that the information on my websites could go offline at
|
|
|
|
|
|
any time (although it is online since 2019)_.
