AMATEUR RADIO STATION
NEW ZEALAND

INTRODUCTION.

ZL4KF is an Amateur Radio (ham radio) call-sign, the ZL prefix represents New Zealand, the number 4 historically was used to indicate the southern region of New Zealand (4th district) and the KF part is the individual station identification, in this case also being my initials. (Ken France). More info here >>. I have held this call-sign since 1971, after gaining my license to operate an amateur radio station in that year. This website is about my amateur radio station, my interest in ham radio, especially antennas, propagation, electronics, computers and other things.

New Zealand has around 6,000 licensed amateur radio operators and much information on amateur radio in this country can be found on the NZART website.
