After 40 years in the UK, we now live on the South coast 60 miles West of Kingston near Malvern. At just over 2250ft ASL and 3 air miles inland of the beach, we enjoy a near panoramic view of the surrounding lowlands looking out to the sea horizon.
Our location is ideal for 6Y5WJ but vunerable to the elements, especially during the hurricane season.
A very modest station comprised of Kenwood/Yaesu equipment, a 5 band quad,a 160M inverted "L" with elevated radials, an 80M vertical, a 40M vertical and a Beverage toward Europe.
I operate 99% CW and I'm a member of various CW clubs. I do operate other modes, but much rather the challenge of CW. As an absolute novice contester, I've adopted the code of conduct, so if you hear me, do likewise and I WILL "evenyually" answer your call.:)!
I was first licensed in 1982 as G6RXC and soon after, under the mentorship of G0FOC (Mick) achieved the “A” class license and subsequent callsign G0NAN.
We currently offer accommodation at our annex and my shack is also available to licensed hams who are interested in operating from 6Y5. Drop me an email for details: joshwalkr(at)gmail.com
Our visitors have included, the well known duo, Lali (VE3NE) and George (VE3NZ) who operated 6Y3M in the CQWWCW.
George (6Y3M) again in the160M contest, also the revered and well known Yuri (VE3DZ) operating SOAB HP as 6Y2T in the ARRL CW contestand crossing the finish line in second place with a score of 6.8M.
Thanks for stopping by and if you know the origins of the paddle below, drop me an email
