    Hello everybody!

    I have decided to study for my Irish Ham licence. First will be the 2m and 70 bands. Then try and educate the old brain for morse for the full ticket.

    I am currently also playing with APT weather images

    Sean,

    I have decided to study for my Irish Ham licence. First will be the 2m
    and 70 bands. Then try and educate the old brain for morse for the full ticket.

    Good luck to you with that. Sean Dennis is a ham (his callsign escapes
    me offhand), and I'm WX4QZ.

    Now, the "purists" aren't happy with my operating "internet radio", but
    at least "my license isn't just a piece of paper"...as I'm on the air with
    nets nearly every night of the week. But, where I live (my late parents
    place), I can't have RF gear.

    Daryl

    There are always those who seen the internet as having no place, whatever the hobby is. But it helps promote it
