Falklands Invasion 2nd April 1982

A recording of Bob McLeod VP8LP in Goose Green on the 20 metres amateur band on the evening of the invasion as made here at the time. At that time Bob was literally the only contact back to the UK and it makes interesting listening. Sorry about the quality, it was very hastily made at the time...

New Zealand on 160m!

A short recording of a morse CW contact I had with Peter Watson ZL3GQ in Christchurch on 4th October 1977. The greyline path to New Zealand from the UK is quite difficult on Top Band and only occurs for a few days around the equinoxes. This contact was made with 10W, at that time the legal limit for Top Band in the UK
