About

Hi, My name is Tim Ostley and I reside in the beautiful western part of the Isle of Wight about 7 miles SW of Newport the county town.
I was first licensed in 1976 as G8MCI using a Kenpro KP202 handheld (a massive 2.5W on 2M) and then using an IC202 which I regret selling.
After a lull due to work / family etc I got back into the hobby building a set of Howes HF kits. I have always enjoyed electronics, indeed having spent several years in hardware and software design for computer systems.
I have since joined the GQRP club, built an Elecraft K2, an Epiphyte, a Fox 3 and several items of test equipment just to name a few!
