Hello and thanks for visiting my site...
My interest in radio and electronics started when I was about 12 after building
a crystal set.
I then was a member of various school radio and electronics clubs and started
Short Wave Listening at about 13 years of age using R1155 and R107 receivers
and a longwire aerial, ending up with an FRG-7700 and an FRG-100 which I still
have. I was a Short Wave Listener for 37 years and with the advent of the new
style licensing exams in the UK, decided to get licensed! This started with
M3JUH (Foundation Licence) in October 2002 and then 2E0MJD (Intermediate
Licence) in June 2004. I passed the Advanced Licence Exam in June 2006 and
became M0XJP. This callsign belonged to my good friend Don Bache who sadly
passed away in February 2006.
M0XJP and 2E0MJD are both my current callsigns and look like being that way for life under the OFCOM licensing system!
I am now slowly learning Morse Code!
The new FULL Licence allows me, amongst other things, to operate in CEPT
countries - I operate (Alinco DX70TH & G5RV) from Spain when I can and visit ASPE near ALICANTE on a regular basis using the callsign EA5/M0XJP. I have also
operated (July/August 2007) from France as F/M0XJP/P in the Alps at SAMOENS
(JN36ib) Col de Joux - Plain (1700 meters ASL) and at GALESSIE (JN54sk) near
CAHORS, S.W. France (about 300 meters ASL).
As you can see from the equipment below I use various items to enhance the
received sound as my hearing is not the sharpest available! Please be tolerant
if we have a QSO - Your callsign phonetically the first time helps me a great
deal!
I look forward to our first contact, best 73’s de Martin
