About Me
Okay so what can I say, Invented in the 1950’s in Romford (then Essex), went to school at Bishop Ward Dagenham, Left school in 1972 and went to work in London for an advertising agency in Central London,(McCann Erickson) the money wasn’t great but I enjoyed doing my job and (I think) did it well. After there I went to work in a pharmaceutical manufacturers (May & Baker) in Dagenham, the money was much better and less travelling but I didn’t enjoy the job compared to the first one.Getting into Radio
Ever since the Apollo 11 mission in 1969 I have enjoyed anything to do with radio, then I was given a shortwave radio at the age of Fourteen, really liked listening to all sorts of things from many different countries at various times. To be able to contact people from other countries is something I have always wanted to do, I did well with my CB I made a contact 3 miles away (wow, wonders will never cease). Followed Amateur Radio possibly since then but because of the Morse test I never bothered to take it up until I was nearly 60, what a waste of 46 years. In 2016 I saw a video of a show called TX Factor, episode 9 featuring Essex Ham.Licencing
I sat the Essex Ham’s Online Foundation course on the run up to the Classroom Course at Chelmsford Amateur Radio Club, then on 23rd February 2017 I passed The Foundation. Later that year I sat a Three day intensive course at ML&S for the Intermediate Licence, Passed 18th November 2017.
