December 2022 Added rant about todays useless (internet) search engines.

November 2022 NEW Project An AD9833 Based Simple VFO. FT101ZD VFO project updated.

October 2022 A replacement internal DDS VFO for FT101Z/ZD rigs. Because the worlds postage system has gone totally bonkers and it is not possible to send a small pcb anywhere except at extreme cost, I am slowly making available the option to purchase pcb's from Pcbway. First up is the Simple DDS VFO 2017 project pcb. Others will be added over time. Noise Canceller kits available again- see Noise Canceller page.

Privacy Policy uploaded. GPDR and all that stuff In accordance with various bits of legislation around the world, either currently in force, about to come into force or proposed, you will now find that annoying "We use cookies" notice at the top of this website. The full Privacy Policy is available at the Privacy Policy link in the footer at the bottom of the page. (If you don't know what GPDR is, Google it. Real scary shit for ANYBODY with a web presence.)

Old QSLCards

A long time ago, I was doing a job for a customer who was about to move house. In a pile of stuff destined for the rubbish were some very old QSL cards, which I was told I could have if I wanted them. Below are some low resolution scans of some, along with a hand wriiten letter (remember those?), that date from 1913 to 1925. I have about 90 of them, most dating around the same period. I will post some more as time (and inclination) permits. Most are in reasonable condition, but at least one is in very poor condition. Note the schematic drawing on the back of the letter.
