Biography

Following on from my early Citizen Band radio roots, I studied for the UK Radio Amateur Examination (RAE) in December 1981 and received my Amateur Radio license and call sign in June 1982. I established my first station during the summer of 1982 in Tonbridge, Kent, England.

In 1986 I moved to Worthing and re-established the station at my new address, but in the the spring of 1989 due to storm damaged G6JVT went off air until the spring of 2006 when I got the old equipment out of the loft dusted it off and started to rebuild the station.

Worked DXCCs:

Equipment

My station comprises of a Yaesu FTM-400XD 2M & 70cm FM/C4FM transceiver, Anytone AT-588 for FM on 4M band, a Yaesu FT-991A for HF, VHF & UHF. I also have CRT6900 10M multi-mode transceiver.
I use a 40M doublet multi band wire dipole antenna mounted about 6M above ground level for all HF work.
For the 4M band I have a homemade half wave vertical dipole mounted at about 5M above ground.
On 2M and 70cm FM I use a Diamond X-50 high gain dual band collinear antenna mounted 6M above ground level.
For 2M and 70cm SSB work I use a dual band Yagi antenna designed by DK7ZB (5 elements on 2M and 8 elements on 70cm) mounted above a Yaesu rotator at about 8M above ground level.

When on holiday or out portable I use my Yaesu FT-817ND and a Super Antenna or my Wonder Antenna.

DX Code Of Conduct
