Anyone work HF? I am thinking about studying for the Foundation licence; no idea where I'll put the antenna if I pass. It'll have to be a vertical I suppose which kind of sucks - my wife would divorce me if I put a mast and multi-element in the garden

Spot the basic error, can't be having a conversation as no one is saying "over" and switching from transmit to receive.

Built in the belly of junk by the river my cabin stands
Made from the trash I dug out 'the heap, with my own fair hands
Every night, I'm back at the shack and I'm sure no one is there
I'm putting the aerial up, so I can go out on the air
On the air
On the air
On the air
Every morning I'm out at dawn with the dwarfs and the tramp
For a silent communion lit from above by the sodium lamps
Everyone I meet on the street acts as if I wasn't there
But they're all going to know who I am 'cause I can go out on the air
On the air
On the air
On the air
Leaving the car down leafy lane
Turning out Tarzan for my Jungle Jane
anyone at all
From Captain Zero and his brand of superhero
standing…
Don't give me your steak-reared milk boys, milk boys
Half alive on empty white noise, white noise
I got power, I'm proud to be loud; my signal goes out clear
I want everybody to know that Mozo is here
On the air
On the air
On the air

I'm G1EKM
However not actve at the moment, due to stupid house moving which is like painting the Forth bridge. Foundation license is a doddle, my two son's passed when they were 10/12 years old.
Will pick up again when I can get some wire outside...
