Welcome to the QRZ webpage of Amateur Radio Station G0VUH transmitting from a small village called Anston (IO93JI) (SK58) in the beautiful county of Yorkshire, which is about half hour drive from Sheffield the fourth largest city in England.

My employment is within the National Health Service here as a Drug counsellor for the criminal justice system for the past ten years now.

When transmitting in psk the station operates via www.pskreporter.info/ a very useful tool in determining propagation conditions on the bands. If i am operating on the bands "Live on Air" will be activated via www.hrdlog.net this is where all contacts are uploaded in real time. I use the excellent Ham Radio Deluxe Programme with DM780 software into a SB-2000 Radio interface by CG Antenna.
