WELCOME TO WOTA CLUB DEAR DUNIA EA8BHD

Hello! I am Dunia from Gran Canaria Island.

I became a ham and was licensed as EC8ADU in 2004.

On October 17th 2005 after passing the A class examination I became EA8BHD.

At this moment I am active on mode SSB only. I like very much dxing and contesting and I have taken part in many SSB contests since 2004. I have taken part also in many special events stations and I have used many special calls. I am a member of the Young Ladies Radio League, Grupo DX Gran Canaria, URVO DX, URE and now WOTA club hihihi…

I hope to meet you on the air soon, greetings from Canary Islands, IOTA-AF-004, DME 35.011 Locator IL27HV
