Back on Amateur radio after an absense of 20 years.

Massive thanks to my best friend Dave GM7UED (now silent key) for getting me back in to the hobby.

Currently active mostly on FM and digital modes. Dstar and DMR.

My old call sign was G1BJY and now I have my late uncle's call sign. Ofcomm were not allowing the adoption of other call signs and it had been a battle to get it allocated to me. The solution was to enlist the help of Harriet Baldwin my MP.........Success.

Radios now include ID-51,  ID-31,  IC-7100,  ID-5100, FT1D, RT3, FT7800, FT290Rmk1 and FT290Rmk2

I have to admit my biggest mistake was selling my Icom IC-703. Now I have replaced it.

Cold spots (well 10mW is never hot in terms of RF) on:

DMR

Dstar

& GMSK for Dstar (yes a real hotspot running 20W)
