Hi Greg,
My best wishes for you and your wife in your relocation. My wife and I
have been through several different upheavals and we just decided those
marked the beginnings of "Bill and Carolyn's New Adventures".
I wonder if you might use some of that gear for amateur satellite
operation. That might contribute to your radio satisfaction. I am going
to give that a try here.
73,
Bill KU8H

Hi all,
It is with some sadness that I have to tell you that this will be my
last post on Topband, after a presence of 24 years, including my
activity as ZS5K.
My wife and I are relocating back to ZS1 so that she can be with her
young family, and we are unlikely to be moving into a property from
which Topband operations will be a pleasure. I have had 17 great years
enjoying a good station with dedicated Rx antennas, and know that I
would be frustrated with 'city lot' type operations.
Instead I am in the process of constructing microwave equipment, and
have already had my first QSOs on 23 cm and 3 cm. I'm hoping that
enjoyment of the weak signal propagation modes on those bands will
replace the pleasure I've been fortunate enough to have operating on
160 m.
Thank you all for the great QSOs and good luck with your activities on
the Gentlemen's Band.
73, Greg, ZL3IX, G3ZZI, ex ZS5K
