ITU 12, CQ 09, Grid square FK60ol
Former YV5HUJ (from 1979 to dec 2011)

73 to all and many thanks for visiting.
My name is Edwin Rivera, I was born on 1957 in Caracas Venezuela, married to Aurita YV5JGU since 1989.
I'm almost 100% CW operator and I started my hamlife on 1978, getting my hamradio certificate on march 16, 1979.
80m, 40m, 20m, 15m, and 10m have been my favorite bands. Although not so fluently but I speak some English, un petit peux de Français and Spanish.
My primary ham radio interest is chasing DX.

I really enjoy calling CQ and make QSOs at high speed (QRQ) but I'm always opened to slow down my CW speed to comply with the one of my correspondent.
So please, if some day you hear me and you want to contact me at slower speed, do not hesitate to call me and ask me for QRS or QRSs, I will be very glad to have a QSO at a very slow CW speed with you.

About QSLs:

• ALL cards I receive will be answered for sure! (100%)
• I'm one of those operators who REALLY LIKES PAPER QSLs!!
• Cards received directly will be answered directly (normally within one week). I will appreciate you send SASE + IRC, NO money please.
• QSLs via bureau will be answered in the same way.
• e-mail requests with QSO details will be QSLed via the bureau within the same week but I kindly ask for a paper QSL also via the bureau.
• Please NO eQSL.
