M0SFW is a radio amateur based on the South Coast of the United Kingdom near the city of Portsmouth. I have held my full amateur radio license since December of 2024 but have had a professional interest in radio communications for over two decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My main interest is HF voice communications although I do dabble in VHF, UHF and data modes from time to time. I enjoy building and testing different antenna configurations and trying new things out to see what works and what doesn’t. You can find my QRZ page here<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Although I mainly operate from my home, I like the challenge of portable operations when I have the time. I participate in Summits On The Air (SOTA<\/a>) and Parks On The Air (POTA<\/a>) when I can as this gives me the option to try out new things which I don’t have space for at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I’m not a contest station by any means but I like to keep an eye on the contest calendar and dip in and out of contests, this provides a great opportunity to build and test a solution aimed at a specific band or geography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
