Hi Welcome to my place on the web
I am just starting out with this page so it is pretty much under construction
Hi My name is Neil and I live in the Town of Pudsey near to the citys of Leeds and Bradford
I am Single (And want to remain so) and have my daughter Courtney who is 10 also with me
I started my radio life back on cb radio
and with the help of my mentors Chris 2E0FSR And Billy 2E0WJC I passed my foundation licence in 2007
Since that time I have spent most of my time using data modes (psk31) which being a qrp user (only 5 watts)
from my Yaesu FT-817nd and ½ size G5RV serves my well
I live in the highest part of Pudsey (owlcoates) and have an excellent take off round 360 degree's
I use a vertical tri-band antenna which is on the roof of the house and the base is 641 feet ASL
with my 10 watts on VHF i can often be heard chelping on 145.275mhz.
My current shack consists of
for hf and 6mts i use the FT-817nd and a ½ size g5rv with an LDG-Z100 auto tuner
for 2mts and 70cms I use a Kenwood TM-701e
Since becoming a radio Amateur I have worked 63 countries using mixed modes (mainly PSK31)
The man responsible for my setting up and any problems in the shack isBob G7PAF
He keeps the computer going when i fiddle about with things and break it
If i have worked you then you will be in my log you can check it here
