More Ham Radio Fun

09 March 2015 | Falmouth Harbour, Antigua

Ken has been a lot more active with Ham radio stuff for the last while. The ICOM 802 marine ssb, legally opened up for Ham frequencies, has been doing well with its max output of 150w. The sloper antenna with the copper ground in the hull has allowed for some fun contacts. Tonight "we" stumbled upon the "3905 Century Club Net"... And we were off to the races. The participants were keen to get the Antigua (V2) contact.... Lord help us when we are in St Kitt's and Nevis (V4) and Montserrat (VP2M), the " DX pileup" should be interesting. Montserrat was popular last time we were there.

And guys, the email address is now on the VE0SH QRZ listing...
