Author: Gron Edwards

First started with amateur radio in 1969 whilst serving with the RAF in Bahrain operating the then club station MP4BBA. In more recent times, and during the late 90's I flirted with the hobby by doing some study & cw, but never tried the exam. It wasn't until April 2014 that I passed the Foundation and eventually in December last the Full licence.
