My name is Beth, and I am from the west coast of Wales. I passed my foundation licence MW6VOW in June 2012 after many years of procrastination. I have now upgraded to 2W0VOW at the begining of february 2013 .
Equipment here is a Flex-3000 , Kenwood TS-480HX and Yaesu FT-920. For antennas, I started off using my home built 3/4 wavelength 40 meter band wire (30m), with 1/4 wave counterpoise (10m). I then got a 2 el quad with 5 bands (thanks Steve). My latest antenna project has been my new SteppIR DB18 - a 3 element yagi with two active elements on 40, one element on 30, and 3 elements from 20 - 6 meter bands. You can see pictures of the SteppIR installation below here. I still have all the antennas mentioned above, but use the SteppIR most of the time.
Thanks for stopping by my page. If you have worked me on one of the bands, thanks for the QSO and look forward to many more QSO's
QSL INFO: Please NO QSL via the bureau. QSL to eQSL or to my QSL manager EB7DX with $ 2 USD or 1 IRC and $ 1
