Biography

My interest in radio was sparked at the age of 14 when I was in the Scouts. I quickly got my licence with the help of the Bishop Auckland Radio Amateurs Club and started communicating on various bands as much as I could. All through school I was active with wire antennas in my parents loft space. Much revision was skipped to play radio! I went on to graduate with a 2:1 from The University of York, where I read for an MEng. (Hons) in Radio Frequency Engineering. Again much time was spent playing radio rather than working...
I was heavily involved with the student radio station University Radio York when I was at York, as Chief Engineer, and was active with the local amateur radio club (G4YRC). Unfortunately efforts to start the University Radio Club again were unsuccessful, but that didn't stop me from being active on the air from my residence there.
In more recent times I have become more involved with Contesting and we have a small local group, The Vulture Squadron Contest Group M0VSQ/G9V. I also enjoy ragchewing on the HF bands, pretty much 100% CW.
Hope to see you on the air some time.
73, Iain M0PCB/AD5XI

PLEASE AVOID DUPES
calling me every time you hear me: keep in mind that your dupe QSO steals the chance to work a new one to an other ham.Thanks!
PLEASE CHECK MY LOG:
My callsign has been used by pirates many times, so please perform a free log search before sending me a direct QSL:
https://secure.clublog.org/logsearch/3A2MW (no login required).
If you find a discrepancy, please send me an email, but NOT the QSL.
MY QSL POLICY:
- all my logs are in the ARRL Logbook of The World (the QSL route I prefer)
- I answer to any QSL card via Bureau
- if you want my QSL card direct, please enclose a SAE and 2$; if not, I will answer via Bureau
- I upload my logs to eQSL.cc (AG) as a courtesy, but I do not use eQSLs.
3A STATIONS ARE NEVER STRONG OVERSEAS, BECAUSE OF THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
- Monaco is the smallest Country in the UN, limited by the sea (one side) and France belonging mountains the other side (see image)
- the maximum legal power is only 100w
- antennas have been banned by a 1988 law (Loi 1122 22/12/1988) see link, but small or stealth verticals are tolerated.
SKEDS:
I have a life besides ham radio, so skeds are for those who can keep them.

If you wish to QSL could you kindly send the card directly to ZD7FT and NOT ZD7VC as he is NOT my QSL Manager!  Thank You.

I was first licenced in March 1973. I came on the air with a Heathkit HW-101 Transceiver and a G5RV antenna. The HW 101 was later replaced with a Yaesu FT-101B Transceiver, and a home made 3 Band 2 Element Cubical Quad completed the antenna farm.In 1977 other pursuits had to be given priority, and I became inactive. I sold my station in the same year and I was QRT. I never imagined at the time, it would be 27 years before I would be back on the air again.
In January 2004 I was able to return to the hobby. My Station comprised of an Icom-746, and once again a G5RV antenna. What a joy it was to be back on the air! Later, a Carolina Windom 80, and a Carolina Windom 80 Special replaced the G5RV.
Having retired in October 2006 after a 44-year career in the Public Service, I now have more time to play radio. There have also been a number of changes to the station since 2004 as well.
My current station comprises – a 5 Band Heavy Duty Spiderbeam at 10 meters above ground. (I still have my Carolina Windoms). A Yaesu FT-950, and a Icom IC-7410.
Since putting up the Spiderbeam, entries in my log have certainly increased from the many pile-ups I have been in. My favourites bands are 17, 15, 12 and 10 meters. I also get on 40 meters occasionally.
I do not chase DX. I have no need to really. I work whoever comes along. I simply enjoy giving Hams a chance to put a ZD7 in their logs. I respond to all requests for QSL Cards providing they are accompanied by 2 US Dollars (or Euro or Sterling notes) and an SAE. PLEASE! do not send coins or stamps. AND do not QSL via VE1AIH who was my QSL Manager. (He is now a Silent Key anyway). Getting a card back to you could take 3-8 weeks, this is beyond my control, as ZD7 land does not have an air service. So please be patient.

DX CODE OF CONDUCT www.dx-code.org/
1 I will listen and listen and then listen some more
2 I will only call if I can copy the DX station properly
3 I will not trust the cluster and will be sure of the DX station's call sign before calling
4 I will not interfere with the DX station nor anyone calling him and will never tune up on the DX frequency or in the QSX slot
5 I will wait for the DX station to end a contact before calling him
6 I will always send my full call sign
7 I will call and then listen for a reasonable interval. I will not call continuously
8 I will not transmit when the DX operator calls another call sign, not mine
9 I will not transmit when the DX operator queries a call sign not like mine
10 I will not transmit when the DX station calls other geographic areas than mine
11 When the DX operator calls me I will not repeat my call sign unless I think he has copied it incorrectly
12 I will be thankful if and when I do make a contact
13 I will respect my fellow hams and conduct myself so as to earn their respect

And remember: please not help the DX station to put you on a “black list”!
Help you and us to have fun!
Thanks!
