I was licenced in 1988 with the G7DNT call. In 1988 this was a class B call and allowed only VHF and above access. I also hold an Advanced class call of M0XON.

In 2001 I took the M3 call and was then allowed to use the 10 watts on all HF bands.

Radio communications agency decided that Morse code be dropped and all class B licenced Amateurs became upgraded to A Class.

I also run the local Echo-IRLP node in Ipswich the node nubers are IRLP 5503 and Echolink 262500

If your in the local area please tune in to 145.3375 Mhz with a 110.9 CTCSS

In 2006 I decided in having a radio shack built and the wife wanted the spare room back.

More details and photos will be added soon please click continue to see the progress.
