Hello and welcome to my webpage!
My name is Emma, I'm 21 and in January I passed my foundation exam. I was first introduced to radio in July 2007 and have since developed great interest in the hobby.
I got the idea for my call sign because I adore cats and have a cat called Meow Meows who can often be found sat in the shack watching me on the radio!
A big thank you to everyone on 145.275 for welcoming me on the frequency and a special thank you to 2E0IJK for all your support.
The radios I currently use in my shack are: Icom 756 Pro 3, Yaesu FT 8900R and Yaesu FT 817D.
Other equipment I use consists of: Microphone - Heil Goldline GM5, Amplifier - Sommerkamp SLA 817, Antenna - Cushcraft MA5B minibeam and various dipoles, Rotator - Yaesu G600 RC, Tuner - MFJ 941E and Morse key - Bencher BY2 iambic paddle
My HF mobile set up includes: Yaesu FT 857 D, Maldol HFC 20, HFC 17L AND HFC 15L Antennas and a Sirio HY power 400: 10 - 12 metres.
My VHF/UHF mobile set up includes: Yaesu FT 7800 E and Watson W770 HB.
<---- What am I doing??
Well, here is your answer!! Every year I run charity race for Cancer Research UK called Race For Life.
Its a women only event and races take part all over the UK, taking part in this race helps to raise money for those affected by this common disease.
Taking part makes me feel such pride that I am lucky to be well enough and able to raise vital funds for those less fortunate then myself. However, these events cannot take place without sponsorship. If would like to sponsor me, any donation even the smallest really makes a real difference and would be hugely appreciated.
Remember, the donations do not go to me, they go directly to Cancer Research UK, you can donate via my online sponsorship page by clicking on the following link:
Thank you
