First of all: The polar bear (on my picture) is alive. He went through some scientific measurements and was "drugged" when the picture was taken. He walked away a couple of hours later. He was one of 315 polar bears visiting Hopen Radio during my stay there in 1994.
LB2TB was on the air for the very first time in the evening of January 26 1981 (Age 15). My very first QSO was with DL5JP in Germany on 40 meters at 20:05 UTC (Imagine all that QRM I had on my first attempt!). On my 16th birthday, I got my LA5EBA call (A-class)
When I was 18 years old, I graduated as a Radio Officer with 2nd class certificate. After a year, I upgraded to 1st class certificate. I was only able to sail on the seven seas for about 1,5 years. After that I had to go to the Navy and do my service there. I was a radio operator in the Norwegian Coast Guard (Coastguard vessel "Senja"/LBHB). Also served as a radiooperator for NATO HQ in Oslo area. I worked 5 years in the Norwegian Foreign Ministry as a radio officer in charge of daily communication with Norwegian embassies in more than 40 countries around the globe. I then continued with the same employer as a radio technician dealing with communication both home and abroad. Total visited 67 embassies (countries). In 1994 I was engaged for 6 months as a radio operator/weather observer on Hopen Island
- operating Hopen Radio/LMR on a daily basis.
I work as a Radio Surveyor with Telenor Maritim Radio in the Oslo-area and surrounding coastal areas, dealing with GMDSS equipment on ships. (Global Maritime Distress and Safety System)
(Sometimes I am QRV from our office in Oslo with the callsign LA2A).
I have been QRV from the following callsigns: SM/LA5EBA, OZ/LA5EBA, OHØ/LA5EBA, LA5EBA/MM, JW5EBA - Hopen Island. I was a guest operator during "Lighthouse Weekend" on 8S6LL in 2007 and 2010 (Hallö Lighthouse in Sweden)
On 17 october 2008, after nearly 27 years as LA5EBA , I received my old "vanity" callsign, LB2TB (still with full privileges).
I am QRV on all HF-bands, including 6 meters and 2m/70cm, primarely on CW.
The antenna for 40 to 10 meters is a Cushcraft R8 vertical - ground mounted. I'm using a 41 meter long Windom - up about 12 meters - primarily on 160, 80, 60 and 40 meters. Both antennas are located 100 meters (328 feet) away from my house and my neighbours. No more local QRM !
Some pictures:
My QTH in Gressvik, near Fredrikstad, Norway. Antennas are located 100 meters (328 ft) behind the house
My antennas are about 328ft/100 meters away from my house and local QRM

FM
For Field Day operating, FM is probably the easiest VHF mode to implement. You’ll have little trouble finding FM rigs to use; even a
hand-held transceiver can make a fine Field Day rig. FM doesn’t have the range of CW or SSB, but it is the most popular
communications mode on the VHF and UHF bands. You’ll find the greatest amount of FM simplex activity on the 2-meter band,
although 6 meter FM may be worth a try as well. Remember that Field Day rules prohibit the use of repeaters. This means you’ll
have to hunt for contacts on the recognized simplex frequencies.
QSL INFO
