Radio Amateur G4NAB/F5VMR
G4NAB – in the Spinnaker Tower, Portsmouth.
Having lived in France active as F5VMR for more than 13 years, I have returned to England in March 2021 and have resumed as G4NAB, now fully established in our new home in Northumberland, in the far north-east of England.
Born and bred in Gosport in the south of England, for a long time I was resident there, before a professional career spanning 30 years from 1973 around the county of Hampshire. During that period as a Police officer, about 13 years was spent in the post of a radio controller/dispatcher in various evolutions from Low Band VHF through to Phase-Linked UHF multi repeater systems. This involved direct contact with the public receiving emergency calls, and directing colleagues to intervene in incidents. For the remainder of my service I was both a patrol officer and port officer at various times, retiring in 2003 from the county control room.
Oh! and Yes! All Lives Matter.
