RADIO - All things Radio & Space
Mike has always had a great interest in
'all things to do with radio', from building crystals sets, valve radios,
transistor radios and very crude spark transmitters. Great interest in CB when
it came long. He passed the Foundation and Intermediate Amateur Licence Exams in
the late nineties and is member of the RSGB. He has a deep interest in Astronomy - see the
link below 'Journey Into Deep Space' and is a member of the Norman
Lockyer Observatory.

WHAT IS AMATEUR RADIO?
Amateur radio is all about the skill and fascination of
communicating using radio.
Radio amateurs use a wide variety of radio
communication equipment to communicate
with each other and provide emergency
communications with their communities.
Radio amateurs have their own communication satellites, can talk to
astronauts aboard the International Space Station
are are often involved in cutting-edge experimental wireless technology. It is
an incredible diverse and very popular interest with over six million people
involved worldwide.
