About me, M0SLK

I was a Telecommunications Technician in REME from 1987-1998, mostly doing Clansman repair when we weren't galavanting off playing little boy soldiers...

A few years ago I joined the local Army cadets as an instructor and re-kindled my interest in radios, got carried away at some auctions and bought far too much kit for my wife's liking...

I took my foundation exam in November 2011 (M6FYI), did my intermediate exam (a surface mounted SDR receiver project) in March 2012 (2E0ERV) and passed my advanced in July 2012 (M0SLK). Thanks to the guys at Andover radio Club for all their help along the way!

Unfortunately I have managed to spend very little time on air lately due to many other priorities, although I do spend some time with the Gozo Radio Club as 9H4SS on Lighthouse day in the summer catching some sun and trying to make contacts, despite the incredibly bad interference from the lighthouse itself!

Nowadays, my main interest in radio is working out how to modify the equipment to make it more user friendly in the modern day - keep an eye out for new mods in the modifications section of this website..
