23 Mar 2011 – Operating VP8AQA from Antarctica

At the LRS meeting on 23rd March 2010 Dave Burke GM6SZJ talked about “Operating VP8AQA from Faraday Base, Antarctica” and showed many slides of his three years there. Dave was electrician / boatman at Faraday Base from 1981 till 1984 with the British Antarctic Survey. He also doubled up as relief radio operator (presumably when not working the DX on the ham bands)! A full report with photographs is posted in Meeting Reports.
