Hi my name is Ronnie and my call signs are MM1RON and 2M1GFG I am 13 and very keen on amateur radio. I got into the hobby very young because my friends dad was licenced and he wanted to do a course and needed more people so I volunteered to go on it. The course was great my teacher, Peter (GM4DTH) was very good and helped me and Richard to pass the exam. I sat the exam in 1997 aged 10 and passed, I was very happy and was lent a rig by Peter. I later bought an Alinco DJ G5EY handheld which I sold last week I bought an Icom IC-290 which put me on SSB and CW. Also last week I got my RAE and attained the callsign MM1RON which I was very happy about. I would like to thank all the people who have helped me in amateur radio and look forward to working you sometime. 73 de Ronnie MM1RON e-mail 2m1gfg@qsl.net, mm1ron@qsl.net and rdempster98@watsons.edin.sch.uk (you have to copy and paste the e-mail addresses if you want to mail me)
