My HF antenna came down today – something I have been meaning to do for some time and have really just not had the heart to admit it. I’m QRT.
There was a HAMNET call in today and ONE of the callins noticed I was not there and gave me a call – other than that my Ham friends have been rather thin on the ground!
I am still a committee member on the PEARS committee, and as such I need to read the news in a week or twos time, so I still have my VHF rig up – but I have not been on the air in months and apparently not being missed either 😉
I’m not sure what is next, but I need to move on. Ham radio is not what it used to be and SOTA has changed too.
I feel trapped in that I have commitments (like the SARL website and the PEARS news bulletins) but really feel like I’m not doing them justice. That said, will any one else do anything if I make a gap?
I’m not saying good-bye, but rather so-long,
