Biography

Commenced as a Novice in the mid 70's as VK5NGU. After much study, sweat and tears, became a Limited Call of VK5KUC. (Full call theory but no Morse).

After the elimination of morse from the requirements meant that I was now a Full Call and after a lapse of some years, now hold the call of VK5KJG.

Worked DXCCs:

Equipment

Main radio is a Yaesu FT-991 all band, all mode transceiver.
TYT th-7800 UHF/VHF dual mode transceiver.
Diamond W-8010 Multiband trapped di-pole
3 Element Yagi for 2m.
Dualband Ringo vertical VHF/UHF
