About Me

My name is Fawaz Sulaibeekh, born on 30th April 1972, married, and have 3 daughters and 1 son.

I start this hoppy earlier in 1992 on CB band, and I stopped at the end of 1996. In April 2013, when I was on my way to Bahrain from Riyadh in Saudi Arabia, I decided to return to the hoppy but with an official identity. I got my license as A92AA in June 2013.

I am operating in the following modes and bands
Modes: AM, FM, CW, DMR. D-STAR, FT4, FT8, PSK, RTTY & SSB
Bands: 2m, 6m, 10m, 12m, 15m, 17m, 20m, 30m, 40m, 60m, 80m & 160m.
