Welcome to G0KME's web site.
Full A class license UK Radio ham.Good day too all, thanks for looking at
my Details and Pics.
About myself I have been connected with
Radio and Electronics since a very young lad,
it all started with me about the
age of 9 to ten years old, building small
Rx's and putting up my own home
brew aerails. This lead me after finishing
high school, and my Uno - college studies,
were I took Radio communications
engineering, after that I went on too work
for one of the leading telecommunications
companies at that time.
Been licenced now for near on 30 odd years + -
hi hi, holding and counting both of my
callsigns, and injoyed every second and
minute of it -- its in my blood, radio I
guess it allways will be.
Worked a greater part of my time in the early years on the
VHF and UHF bands were I managed too work neary all the UK
and deep into europe on both those bands, with out useing
the full legal power for the Uk licence.
After getting my A class went onto work
all if not most of the countrys in world
including some of the very rear ones.
Now days I seem too sit back and let it
happen, if thay out there with out hunting
for DX anymore, progation permitting has
we all know.
Now days you will find me rag chewing
on one band or another too the many
friends I have made over the years, among
them very good one's I must say, but I love
too make new ones what ever bands I am
useing.
Its a great hobbie has we all know we
have here, and I try my best too help and
bring on some of the youngsters in the UK
too take up the hobby, lets hope it never
dies out with the on slort of the Internet
ect, tho saying that I get called a old
computer geek, but think there is still a
place for both in my book.
The other interests in my life have been Music,
Art, and Photography, to just name three.
On the music side I went onto compose
pop music and songs while playing in a
very well known group in the mid sixtys
too the early seventies, injoyed it so much
also that part of my life, but like many of us say about those
days thay are parts of it that are a bit misty now hi hi.
I moved Qth in the last year and half too a
lovely part of the UK in the North East of
England were the people are so friendy and are still very
helpfull too each other, least I have always
found them so.
Besides the great countryside here were we live now it just
takes your breath away, just waking up in
the mornings and looking out the window.
73 too all, and thanks for reading this
Roger G0KME.
