Welcome To The Home Of GOMTD
to my little
piece of cyberspace !!!!
Hello,
I'm Steve and this site is my attempt to share a little bit of information
about the hobby I've been involved in for many years. I was licensed as G0MTD
in December 1989 after sitting my morse test in
Clifton near Bolton having previously studied the RAE at the Technical College
in Wigan, my home town.
Although
licensed for over 20 years I still only have just 3900 contacts in the log
which shows that the amount of time I get to operate is very limited. I enjoy
HF SSB and dabble with data and CW particularly when propagation is poor. My
main interest, as you will see from this Site, is experimenting and building
simple HF antennas. I enjoy the challenge of taking a few lengths of wire and
putting them together in such a way that my signal is heard in remote and
distant parts of the world.... sometimes !!!!!!
What
else keeps me busy ?
For the
last 8 years I've been involved with the Workington & District Amateur
Radio & IT Group (MX0WRC). I'm currently a registered tutor for all 3
levels of license in the UK. My other main interest is organising and take part
in expeditions to the Scottish Islands, see links below for more details.
Click
on the links below for more details and keep popping back to the Site as it's
continually under development.
