Hi. My name is Malcolm and I was born in Johannesburg in 1969. I am the youngest of four kids. My father (ZS1MAL) was very insrumental in me becoming an amateur radio operator. One of my highlites as an amateur was when I ran a special event station at the "Big Brother" house in South Africa.
By far the biggest highlite was when I assisted the late ex astronaught Chuck Brady when he was stranded on Bouvet Island. He called me on 20M and I HELPED him with comms between him and NASA.
I am involved in our family business. We do imports and exports as well as supplying a world wide courier service.
My equipment is a ICOM IC-7700, Amplifier is a Commander HF2500 Export. My HF antenna is a Hygain TH11DX
