A very busy Club Night including the delivery of a number of itens donated by Chris G4HCW, culminated in a real Blue Riband Event with Brian G6HUI proudly displaying an Elecraft K3 Transceiver.
Brian was on hand to answer the many questions he was asked about this top end Transceiver. A number of contacts were made with it on 20m but it was the presence of the Radio that caught the eye.
Congratulations to Danny who received his shiny new licence on Saturday 24th May and the all important callsign M7IKJ.
Danny’s first Amateur Radio contacts were made the same day at 10:00 UTC on the 10m (28 Mhz) band on 28.495 USB. Danny worked M7PUC, G0IUE/m, G6HUI and M7HVX.
We caught up with Danny after his first Licenced QSOs and he said “That was really nerve wracking and thanks to all who have helped me get here”
Well done Danny – Very well deserved !
