Hi FB's,
Good to meet you. I've only just got back into this in the last few weeks. I was on the bands back in the 80s as TG013 or Fuzzy Bear but not really worked any DX yet.
I work away a lot, so I'm only static mobile at the moment with an old Stalker IX & a Firestik on a mag mount, currently working around south Oxford & back in Worcestershire at the weekends. But I'd like to get a decent antenna up at home this summer if I can.
I do a bit of SWL as well. I've recently fitted a DRM decoder to an old receiver & use Dream for software decoding. Having said that though, nice idea but not enough broadcasters taking it up to make it worth while I think. Then again current conditions don't help either.
By trade I layout Printed circuit boards using different types of CAD software for this. So if anyone should need any help in this area I'd be only too happy to give some pointers.
Hope to catch some of you on 11m soon.

Hi Ken and welcome.
Your skills in using CAD software for circuit board design may well be of use to some of us at some point in the future - I still make mine by dragging laquer around on the copper...
