Hi,
John from Dumfries & Galloway here.
Just over the border, I am a licenced amateur since 1982 but I do a lot more listening than transmitting. I am interested in most radio topics and bands, amateur, broadcasting, scanning whatever.
I am also interested in photography, trains & railways,(especially the history) and most forms of motor sport.
I am early retired through ill health, but served my time as an industrial maintenance electrician, and I also have experience in instrumentation, and at one stage had my own alarm business. My last employment was with the local NHS in general maintenance. I'm over 60, but the government state pension, still eludes me LOL.
Hopefully I can contribute as well as learn from this site, best regards to all
