I'm an ex-EA8 Amateur. Have the diplomas but don't renew the licence anymore nor use the station.
It was a great hobby and I was most active in CW (morse).
Now use Skype instead. :)
We don't re-new licences any more believe it or not :)

I'm an ex too - I didn't renew in the days when you had to.
My call sign was actually my surname (zero being an O for oscar)
I always bring a radio to Tenerife such as my Vx3 or Kenwood Thf7 to listen to the airband .

I don't now about hams but there is lots calling everyday on 11 meters from there 30+ some are here in cold Leeds
I'm a VK2, but I let it lapse. I find the internet more exciting.
I used to do a lot of SWL too, but short Wave broadcasting is now dying out. It's no longer a cost-efficient way for governments to disseminate their propaganda.

John01, do you know which island the photo on the QSL card is from? I don't recognise it from the only islands I know (Tenerife, La Gomera, Lanzarote).
it is gran canaria ribuck put a few antennas up last year after a time off it true abt internet still the challange of it....5921 last confirmed 1 in tenerife spoke a few times after that no confirmation
I see plenty of yagis on top of houses in the spanish-speaking parts of the island, so I think there are lots of hams around.
