I guess we used 145.00 most of the time back then and AM into our halo antennas. I have a picture somewhere of my Ford Anglia 105E van with a halo supported like a guyed mast. A year later I was married and we moved out into the Fenland north of Ely, and I guess Roger moved out to Burwell. I think it was this wider dispersal that triggered some of us to build GB3PI though Roger stuck to his principles on that and I became disillusioned and left the hobby for 35 years.Bob G3WKWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17774644129884638614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071048343455395511.post-71324819411779876202011-05-20T07:51:05.475+01:002011-05-20T07:51:05.475+01:00Hello Roger

Most stations moved out of the centre due to new housing estates being built on the out skirts of Town. <br /><br />KR TonyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
