Many Thanks:
G3BKS & G3XUM, Jim and Bill - For providing not only inspiration but many hundreds of hours of pre license SWL.
G0IUA, Stuart - For showing how it can and should be done for £5, for the expert training around mounting crazy antenna systems at crazy heights (and them still being there 20 years later) and how to be a Radio “Ham” without being a geek!!
Henk Penning - For having very long arms and the ability to get a 20kg payload at the end of a 26’ mast vertical.
James “Grolsch” Lynch - Anchor man and winch operator.
And last but not least to my current wife, Nikki, who willingly provides beer, foots the ladder, gets really cold and didn’t realise I was going to turn the back of our house into the “Communications Antenna Platform” of a Royal Navy Aircraft Carrier - And, that’s not all - she can work out coax velocity factor too!!!! WOW what a girl eh!!! ______________
Ebay - for providing the means to scour the world for “bits”.
Yaesu - For manufacturing the VERY BEST equipment.
Waters & Stanton - For providing everything imaginable and getting it delivered within days.
Martin Lynch & Sons - For being able to provide kit that W&S don't, and superb technical backup.
