LZ1ZF
I was born in 1955 in Karlovo, Bulgaria. I started to work on HF bands in 1969 in the Radio club LZ1KCP in Karlovo. During the period 1983-2001 I've been responsible of training voluntarily more than 250 young radio amateurs in the Radio club LZ1KVZ of The Technical College "Vladimir Zaimov" in Sopot.
I'm a high mountain fan: http://www.karlovotur.hit.bg/en/index-en.htm
I'm also keen on ARDF ( Fox Hunting - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amateur_Radio_Direction_Finding ) and have over 20 medals in international competitions with highest scores: World vicechampion - 1984 (Norway) and 3-rd in the World in 1997 (Germany).
Since 1969 till the end of 2005 I've written over 850 000 QSL cards - for my S.W.L. LZ1-F-84, LZ1KCP, LZ1KDP (1975-1983), LZ1ZF, LZ1KVZ, LZ1KZA, LZ5A (after 2000) and over 100 special event callsigns: last ones BT4ARDF, TM6RDF, OM9FOX, LZ3EYAC, LZ26ZA, LZ125O, OK5FOX, LZ35ZF, LZ1195IR, LZ127LO, 4N15ARDF and YI9LZ.
