Just to let everyone know John Francis, EI8DL, sadly passed away in February 2008. He was a lovely man and an important member of the amateur radio community in Central and West Ireland. As well as a being a devoted Dad and Grandad. God be good to you EI8DL, we will see you again one day no doubt.

Howdy, John....

I was here about six months ago, and just thought I would return for a visit! Hope you are having a great summer.

Nice Gear ... Wish I could afford some of those.. I've been off Ham Radio for about 15 years now. Really miss those many years when I use to be active.

Thanks OM for your kind words and congratulations on attaining your own call,look forward to working you sometime.Just a footnote it took 25 years to get my station to this standard.Constant updates and payrises over the years hi hi .I started off with a very basic ft200 from yaesu and cw only.You know sometimes I preffered the old setup.Good luck with your station and there are some real bargains to be had. be lucky to be in the right place at the right time. 73s John EI8DL
