I am 37 years old (as of 2009), married, a lawyer by education, business development consultant and university assistant professor (faculty of law and administration) by profession.

I became radio-addicted in 1991, when I passed an exam and received my very first licence and callsign SP4TKK. I have been very active on HF bands for a number of years - those were my school and university times. Somewhere between 1996 and 2007 I have had long break from the hobby due to personal commitments and nature of my professional life. Still, have been somewhat radio-connected by taking an active role in the ITU World Radio Conferences of 1997 and 2000, where some important hamradio-related matters were decided by the ITU Member Administrations. In 1996 have also had a pleasure to spend a week in the ARRL HQ, where I received Amateur Radio Administration course in the framework of USTTI/DoS scholarship.

Anyways, it was 4^th of July 2007, when I came back to the hobby, with my brand new callsign of SP4K. Deep, deep down in the solar minimum I started my DX record almost right from the scratch, as very little (in terms of QSLs) remained from my TKK times. With lack of sunspots, it seems to be the perfect time to oil and polish my rusty operating skills and begin again the quest to reach the top of DXCC list. Also lowbands - including my new favourite 160m (activity started only in October 2008) are great at this quiet sun time.

In major contest I utilize my personal contest call HF4K. QSL for this one goes via SP4KM.
