The pictures below are a record of the radio shack
including the current temporary setup. Hopefully it wont be too long
before I can start adding the new French radio room pictures to the site !!!!!
This is how the shack looked
in October 2004 with the open wire feeder running down the wall.
Still have the old FT221 2m
and the FT780R 70cms multimode rigs with amplifiers. 80W on 2m and
40W on 70cms.
The old FT101E still sits on
the filing cabinet
Open wire feeder for the
doublet and the balanced feeder for the 40m pear tree dipole across the ceiling
Shack March 2006 - a few
changes. Moved the HF aatu to the top of the shelves and added a 4m
rig (thanks Gerry) which now requires a decent aerial.
Shack January 2007
with a new mic, audio mixer and an IC-756PROIII on test.
Shack February 2008
Just started packing equipment away ready for the move to Cyprus
December 2008 Temporary shack in the
dinning room
Spring 2009 Too much
RF flying around so moved the shack to the conservatory using an end
fed long wire with the aatu located at the bottom of the garden.

This is on the
main France 2015 page but a bit of background. I was doing a
science project at school with a friend, Robin, in the year above me
in 1970. We finished the project off at his house and whilst
there I met his Dad Ray Woodman G3YZC and that's how I got into
Amateur Radio. Thank you Robin.
