At the age of 15 I was given a CB radio as a present. My father, a RF engineer,
taught me the theory of electronics and antennae. 1 year later I wrote my Ham
exam. At the age of 20, I was selected as radio operator to the South African
weather station team on Marion Island (ZS8) for a year. One of my team mates
was Petrus, whom now is ZS6GCM, better known previously as 3Y0E on Bouvet
Island and now ZS8T once again on Marion Island.
I haven't been active for a number of years but the bug have bitten me once
again. I am now looking forward to many DX on the bands and hope to hear you
all soon.
A special thanx to all the Hams who played a part in my life, especially during
my school going years right up to now.
God bless! David
