go on then if you must i will graciously accept it into my home

M6MUG gone now 2E0MUG for about 6 weeks now, Still using 10w 2m but the 50w for HF is very welcome. now working towards my full licence it might take a while, although there is no time limit its a hobby but it is also a goal i want to achive. 73s for now.

hi David the M6 test (foundation) is the first of three to get you started and "extreemly" difficult to pass you need to be able to get to a course the hardest part is trying to decide how many suger to put in your coffee and parting with the cash.   Eric there is no way I would spent 6 or 7 hundred pound for a s/h set on ebay I was looking at going for a Yaesu FT897D a bit pricey for a first set but I only want to do it once I dont want to out-grow my first set in the first year or two.

got my licance and call sign   M6MUG   anybody want to swap some rc gear for a multi band hf/vhf/vhf set.

Hi Eric just to let you know I have passed my M6 licence today I have to wait for the paper =work to go through then I can apply for my call sign I will let you know it when I have it. just got to stop spending money on rc then I might be able to get a radio.

wee wii ? hand held ? dont shake it around to much you might get moderated for indecent suggestions eric

Steve i was listening to a repeater site on a hand held scanner hooked up to an aerial 40ft up a pole.   thanks for the morse link eric i know its not a requirement for the course but if i want to progress i am going to need it so i just as well start now then its there for when i do have to have it and it would be fun to play with. sorry for high-jacking you thread i should take this over to your qso's thread really.

Excellent product I haven’t use plastic dip but I have used the liquid tape on electrical wiring applications with great success in hard to reach areas

Many thanks for that eric i will have a look later and as soon as i have a call sign i will let you know. ive just got to find some morse training software now. I had the scanner out last night listening to 145.235/40 a couple of yanks chatting about E links very interesting  I cant wait to get a radio.  

No problem DF im flying tomorrow if you want to have a look at the field

pm sent

I cant say what i do is fly its more a case of i can take off then spend the next 7 to 10 mins trying to keep it in the air in a controlled manner then attempt to return it to the ground in a state that it will take off again. but you are more than welcome to come along to see the site its the best one i have flown from, the grass is as near to a bowling green as your going to get pm me your phone no to arrange a session DONT give out you phone no on any of the forum boards. we can organise some buddy box flying for you aswell.Edited By inspector9566 on 30/10/2010 21:59:29

Talking of radio interferance Im about to take my foundation licence after about 20 years of promising to get a ham licence can you recommend a good ham forum please eric.

Hi Dorset flyer and wrlcome to the best rc forum site in the uk. Where abouts in dorset are you, i fly at hurn on wide open terf fields the grass is never longer than 3/4" long and very flat its a great site if your local give me a shout. Jim Lacey used to be a member of our club but i havent seen him around for a while i dont even know if he still flys planks which is a shame becouse hes a fantastic pilot.
