HI Everyone My name is Jay and I have finally given in to my urges re-join the great worldwide radio community. My wonderful journey in radio started whilst at school using am imported U.S. A.m. Cobra with a 5/8 moonraker strapped to my Mum's guttering. Not long after came along Legal FM in the Uk , did 3 paper rounds to be able to buy my first new radio; an Amstrad 901. After a couple of years with this radio and borrowing SSB radio's I was hooked. This led me to join the Royal signals and I specialised in HF links and alot of rebro roles. Fast foward to today and I am back and more excited about all things radio than ever before. I know its probably a bit sad but I really enjoy all things antenna, especially the theory. Thank you for allowing me to join your group. I would also like to request a Charlie Tango C/s Cheers Jay (Fishstalker)

You're very welcome Jay,
Exciting times, the dipole should serve you well through the summer E-skip season. The band has enjoyed some good openings in recent weeks.
