‍About me:
I am Willi Kraml, and I live in Vienna, Austria. I took the amateur radio license test in 1967 (first without the Morse Code test, a few months later I took that as well), have been licensed in Austria since 1968, and my callsign is OE1WKL (originally I was on the air as OE5WKL, then for many years as OE1WKL, followed by OE3WKL, and now again OE1WKL - in Austria the digit in the call signifies the federal state you live in). In 2021 I also took the US exams, including Extra, and am licensed now also as KD6KW.

‍

‍But I also have to admit that I was not always very active in Amateur Radio  (due to QRL, family duties, and because of too many other interests :-). Now that the times have changed (a sign of old age), „radio activity“ has increased again ... By the way, I am neither an Electronics Engineer, nor a Computer Scientist…. Just an amateur.

‍

‍I am a member of the  Austrian Association of Experimental Transmitters (Österreichischer Versuchssenderverband, ÖVSV), for which I also serve as their web master, and of MetaFunk, and am proud to have been made a life-long honorary member of the Long Island CW Club.
