Hello

My name is Rob and I have been a licenced Radio Amateur since 1986 and I am active on HF 6m 4m 2m 70cm and 23cm and 13cm ATV. I am also interested and use the only 2m simplex Echolink node here in Cambridgeshire MB7IGC run by a good friend Daryl G0ANV.

I am also interested in D-Star and have a Icom IC-2820. We have a new D-Star 70cm repeater located at barkway nr Royston GB7PI about 15 miles from my location.

I am a member of the Cambridge Repeater Group http://www.cambridgerepeaters.net and also a member of the Camb-hams http://www.camb-hams.com

The Camb-Hams were formed in early 2006 as the social and public-facing side of the Cambridge Repeater Group.

We meet on-air via the group’s VHF and UHF FM Voice repeaters, and at regular monthly Pie and a Pint nights. Our contesting side, using the CRG callsign G3PYE, aims to provide an opportunity for non-contest operators to have a go, whilst putting a concerted effort into entering a particular contest. We have also had trips away Six of us went for Four days to Friedrichshafen in 2007 and 2008 We also went for a week away in early april 2008 contesting to the scottish island of Mull, we were active on HF 6M 4M 2M 70cm.

For 2009 the camb-hams are planning yet another dx trip to scotland, this time we are now going to the island of harris.. check out the camb-hams dx 2009 page  http://www.camb-hams.com/coming-events/2009-dxpedition

Also a few of us going back to friedrichshaven for the 2009 radio rally.

As you can see from my picture I am a Train driver I have been doing this for over 24 years now, I used to work for a computer/TV/Radio repair firm before doing my current job.

look forward to hearing from you.
