Biography

Currently the only permanent station on the Isle of Sark in the Channel Islands and the station is now by Sark Mill, the highest point not just on this island, but the entire Bailiwick of Guernsey. I can't think why I wanted to move here.

Originally licenced with a "B" ticket in 1981, the "A" or full licence appearing in 1984.

I am increasingly active, though work demands means this can be somewhat intermittent. That said, I'm still getting to grips with the electronic logging!

Worked DXCCs:

Equipment

HF: FT-102, TS-480, FTDX10
VHF/UHF: TS-780, FT-8000, TS2000X
SDR TX/RX: HS2

Aerials...

Limited at present, it's a long story that involves planning permission.

HF: Inverted V OCF dipole for 40m thru 6m, sloper OCF dipole for 20m thru 6m
VHF: wire dipole in shack
UHF: coaxial colinear

When I have time, currently restoring... more FT-102, TS-430S, TS-440S, TR-7500 (my first commercial radio!).
