Ron Weedon<\/p><\/div>\n

Sunday Morning 15th September 2013 Rex (G4RAE) and John (M0hfh) spent an hour practising Morse code before setting off to visit one of the clubs older members Ron Weedon who is 90 this year. Ron was donating some of his redundant radio equipment to the club. Ron invited us to see his “Shack” which was a tiny table in the corner of the bedroom he shares with his wife; a Yaesu 817 linked to a morse key and LDG atu taped to the top. We asked what the RG58 disappearing out of the window was connected too and Ron showed us a commercial all band HF Vertical he had attached to the washing line post; as we talked to Ron it became apparent just how interested in Amateur radio he is, he showed us the latest entry in the log, TF (Iceland) and explained that he had some difficulty reading the operators morse which was at high speed. all together it was an interesting and inspiring morning. Many thanks Ron (G0IWW).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
