Biography
I was licensed in February 1973 while 15 years old. I was inspired by the late Tom Higginson GW3AHN and motivated by Dan Adams GW3VBP to get my licence.
I have been active again since 2106 and in June 2018 I got my RSGB Special Contest Call M6M, MW6M in Wales. I am a keen contest operator.
