Welcome to Mike's Web page

As you can see in the picture above, I'm a keen radio ham. The picture shows me in my "Radio Shack". Amateur radio is my main hobby, as you can probably tell by the amount of radio related stuff on my site.
I have a full UK class A license, which means I have access to all of the UK amateur bands. I'm quite active on the radio, mostly on HF between 80 and 10 meters, CW SSB & PSK31.
