Looks beautiful from the viaduct on the train. Dad was born there and loved the place. Need to visit.

Is this the Blue Peter garden?
Leeds near Rothwell. My friend Martin G7MRV lived at Hambleton.
Up, up and ooh antenna! Didn’t think the old box kite had this much potential. I’ll bet I don’t have a static bleed resistor in my drawer but you never know.

In about an hour we're premiering The European Ham Radio Show's antenna challenge on #youtube. The five of us from #tehrs met up at the Norwegian Hammeeting to build antennas and just have fun www.youtube.com/watch?v=0EgM...
Did not expect the antenna challenge to be so funny. 10/10 😹
Haha, it’s still owned by the military so unfortunately not! Would be nice to get on the platforms to set up a /p
NATS Radar Station at Claxby, Normanby Top. SOTA G/TW-005 top of the Lincolnshire Wolds 165m asl. On a clear day the views must be… well better than today 😹 #SOTA #amateurradio #hamradio

RAF Stenigot tower, 151m asl, on the way home from the Lincoln Short Wave club rally. The views from up here are..none, very misty!
Lincoln short wave club radio rally. First of the year. #radiorally
Weather forecast today is One line of text. 😹 Yes it’s early BBC Breakfast! #bbcbreakfast #bbcweather #broadcastfails
Stuff the touchscreen cobblers, can you feel those wobbly soft buttons still? How many tapes did yours chew up 😹 Would have loved a minidisc version of this.
Driving around listening to Atlantic 252, European dx or pirates.. #retroradio #retro
On the way back from the 2012 RSGB Convention with G7MRV stopped at Copt Oak / Bardon Hill (SOTA G/CE-004) 250m ASL and caught a beautiful tropo duct across the North Sea into The Netherlands. Needed no more than 5w for 5/9 using FM on the Yaesu 7800. Happy days! #144mhz #RSGB #tropo #144mhzdx #dx
Nice to see DH8BQA’s feedback on an old QSL card from Dec 2007 (G7PZL my old callsign). I really love looking through my old paper QSL cards so it’s super to see this on www.dh8bqa.de #QSL #144mhz
144mhz contest April 2010 with G7MRV at Barlow Common, Selby. FT290mk1 QRP with the MuTek front end and ‘something’ up the army Clansman field mast… Nice day out, worked many stations.

No time to play radio in tonight’s 70mhz UKAC, looks like a good showing though on the cluster. Well done all that participated. #70mhz #UKAC #4m #RSGB #70mhzukac
