context_section_description: The father, Ioan T. Băjenescu (September 17, 1899, Redea, Romanaţi, Romania – November 17, 1987, Craiova, Dolj, county, Romania), was transmission information Colonel of the Romanian Royal Army, Commander of the Cluj-Napoca Transmission Regiment. It first emitted amateur radio signals using the call sign CV5BI, then YR5BI. In March 1926, with Dr. Alexandru Savopol, he laid the foundations for the first radio club in Romania, in Craiova. Together they built Romania's first short-wave Radio station and (in 1926) the first short-wave radio broadcast in Romania. Together with Dr. Alexandru Savopol, October 26, 1926, Second Lieutenant Ioan T. Băjenescu produced the first radio program in Romania for the general public; the program was heard throughout the territory of Oltenia and many echoes appeared in the press in all the cities of Oltenia, and even of the Timok Valley (Bulgaria).
  The mother, Lelia Constanţa (born May 21, 1908, Corlate, Romania; deceased December 15, 1980, Craiova, Romania), born Petrescu, was the first radio amateur woman in Romania, using her husband's call-sign YL CV5BI. Fluent in French and German, she established tens of thousands of radio links on all meridians. Unfortunately, of these QSL (which have been collected over the years as evidence of these radio links) there remains almost nothing, since, immediately after the establishment of the communist regime, they were all burned, as they were evidence of "links with enemies" outside the country.
  His wife, Andrea, born Bogdan (born July 3, 1937), granddaughter of the academic professor Dr. Petru Bogdan, from the University of Iassy, founder of higher education in physical chemistry in Romania, is an electronics engineer. She built the first phonetics laboratory at the University of Bucharest. After emigrating to Switzerland, she worked for four years as an engineer at Brown Boveri in the automation department.
