Just saying Hello, and thanks for having me. Recently retired and rekindling my radio hobby, used to be on CB in the seventies, both here and in the USA, now back on the air on HF, and 11m, at present I have a Yaesu FTDX10, and 2 Yaesu ftdx1200,s, all widebanded, also have an old cb radio, which i hope to upgrade soon, after I sell one of the 1200's. At present i have a multiband vertical antenna, and will soon be putting up a MFJ magnetic loop, I am a bit restricted with space having only a small garden, but I like to mess round with aerials and sometimes will put up a simple Di-Pole or end fed one just to see how well i get out, I have had QSO's all over Europe, and one down to New Zealand, but I am hoping to get some in the USA as soon as I make a good antenna. Looking forward to ragging on 11meteres, (as soon as i get a call sign) Hope to meet some of you on the air 73,s for now Frank 2E0EUF

Hi Frank,
Welcome to Charlie Tango.
Great introduction there.
Nice to hear that you don't let lack of space or a suitable plot for an 'antenna farm' stop you from throwing up aerials as best you can. Not only that but achieve great successes with good contacts.
I've taken the liberty of completing your forum profile for you, (name & country), to ensure there are no delays in you receiving a callsign. They are usually issued every day or so, keep an eye on this posting for when you are issued yours.
All the best, Victor
