Originally licenced as G6EXC on 10 September 1981, I was re-licenced as G4UVB on 5 October 1983 after passing the Morse Test and obtaining the Amateur Radio Certificate. Early pictures of the station include items such as a Black and White portable TV connected to a Sinclair ZX81 in a fuller Keyboard, complete with wobbly 32K RAM pack, an Icom IC-260E

Well, G6EXC was reactivated with OfCom and and was used with EchoLink to provide a 70cm Internet Node / Gateway in 2007/8. As there wasn't much activity I shut down the node.
