ZS8C - MARION ISLAND Carson says, “I have managed to move my radio into my office, making HAM activities much simpler (I used to have it installed in our emergency base which can get a bit cold!). Recently I have started becoming more active on the air, and I am hoping to make a lot more contacts in the coming weeks and months. My preferred method of making contacts is to arrange a “private” sked between a couple of HAMs. Please note that my signal is a bit weak due to my set-up, so you might have to listen very closely. Due to island rules, I cannot upgrade my antenna, so I am stuck with what I’ve got. If you would like to arrange a sked, please pop me an email [zs8c (at)hamcity.co.za]. I look forward to meeting as many HAMs as I can. Thank you to everyone who has made contact with me. It is always exciting meeting different people from around the world, which is one of the things I enjoy the QSO
