The Well

This website is being developed as time permits, so please check back occasionally. Apart from information on some of my military radios there is some history of Australian domestic and amateur radio and WW2 radar, particularly in Australia. There is a shortage of photos until I can get my albums out of storage (see "My radio collection" for the story). Thanks to everyone who has helped me put this site together. I hope you enjoy what you see. If you have any additions, comments, corrections or criticisms please email me at  [email protected]   Colin MacKinnon VK2DYM.
