Blimey, another one, Railway Forum could have decent sized net on 80m at this rate... there seems to be a recurring link between railways and amateur radio.

cheers,

Hi Southeastern 465. I'm a Southern man too, but prefer steam to diesel/electric, therefore my favourite places are Bluebell, K&ESR and Spa Valley. When it's a steam railtour, it's usually Ashford that I go to.
I'm also a BTCC fan and usually go to Brands Hatch for one of the meetings each year.

Regards,
Tony

Excellent, but I have to be honest and admit I'm not qrv below 20m at the moment. Hopefully I'll be getting something sorted out over the next few months for 40 and 80m.
Maybe we should have a dedicated amateur radio thread in the derailed forum :D
cheers,
Andy

Hi

Don't really support any team in particular, but some of my favourite drivers are Jason Plato, Fabrizio Giovianni and Mat Jackson. Matt Neal is good too, but he gets too aggressive when things aren't going his way!
Did you see Plato saving the car from sideways at Paddock Hill bend last week?:eek: Amazing car control!

Tony
