Well, it's raining here at the moment, so I'm sat here making a new antenna (my other hobby is amateur radio).

If anyone is interested it's a half wave dipole for the 20m band (14mhz)

Seems you need to raise your car Nelson...not lower it

Josh,

What's your callsign? If the antenna's for yourself, then I'm guessing grade A??

(GM7DST - Well last time I used it, it was a GM

- I've been in England now for almost five years, and haven't used it in all that time!!! I do have an old ICOM IC2SE somewhere, but can't quite remember where.... Of course, I also have all the required measuring equipment and a log book <cough>)

Hi Mate

I'm one of the new M3's (foundation licence) however I'm currently studying for the intermediate...

I've got a Yeasu FT-100D

The M3 callsign allows access to HF (apart from 10m), 6m, 2m and 70cm bands

Anyway, you should renew your licence and get on the air!
