Hello there. I'm actually new to BBSes, although I grew up during their peak in the 90's didn't have a computer until 2001. I watched the YouTube documentary about BBSes and had to find out. I think I was born in the wrong generation, I find the older stuff much more interesting.

Hi Mike,

I'm based in Dunedin, New Zealand and was uing BBS back in the 90's,
returning to it again in the last 12 months. Welcome to the BBS scene. There are a number of echoareas to post to, this one, is related to all things Amateur Radio.

Glad to see that somebody still keeps an eye on this echo.

I've been thinking of throwing a stick on to this field to see if
anybody would pick it up. Hi

Well I'll need to work on getting my inverted V antenna back up so I can try and work you sometime on 40 meters :)

GE Paul,

Same here, except I've got to get a new Windom (aka W0WO) up. The old one
came down due to age.

Haven't worked much on 40m but I have worked ZL and VK on 80m.

GE Paul,

Hi Holger ;)

Yep it's the curse of HAM operating, having to keep working on antenna that fail/fall down etc..

Haven't worked much on 40m but I have worked ZL and VK on 80m.

OK that sounds like the better way for us to go then. I can start taking
steps over the next couple of months to get my inverted V set up again. Once done it would be fun to try and make some contacts on 20/40/80 meters for
folks reading here.

Best, Paul

I've been MIA for awhile too, but finally back to BBS'ing. Like to get back into Hammin' too, but in my postage stamp I call an apertment, well, it's a
bit difficult. Not to mention, the apartment is in an RF HOLE! Not even a Verizon signal here...

Such a shame that apartments aren't more "ham friendly". Being in an RF hole certainly doesn't help either.

Yeah, at first they stay up for almost 30 years, and the when you have
ceased to climb up even on a stool, they come down ;o(

Haven't worked much on 40m but I have worked ZL and VK on 80m.

up again. Once done it would be fun to try and make some contacts on 20/40/80 meters for folks reading here.

Yeah that will be fun. I have to hurry up here before the snow comes.
