Vladimir M. Bykov, UA4WHX
09.04.09
Vladimir Bykov, UA4WHX is a world traveller for fun - and for sharing the joys of amateur radio with fellow hams. Listen to Vlad telling about his philosophy of hamming, how to be fixed to a tree by a circling (not cycling) pig, why it is so important for him to make sure that everybody gets his QSL - and guess where he will be going next. His wife Irina Bykovais WA4WHX (Photo)
