DATV Experimenter's Night - Working from the Shack #16 - VK7TW

Apologies for the slightly hot audio - we have just changed over our audio mixer and we are still finding our levels! Warren VK7WN welcomed our audience to the DATV Experimenter's Night and introduced Justin VK7TW who I was the subject of the sixteenth Working from the Shack interview. Justin went into growing up in Adelaide and his family then went into his education and working history starting at a company called Microbyte which manufactured typewriter interfaces and PCs. Justin then headed back to school and went off the University, got married and came to Tassie after getting married. Whilst working in Adelaide Justin studied with Geoff Taylor VK5TY and on the train to/from work with Ian Ridpath's study guide and got his z-call in 1986 as VK5ZJV. In Adelaide Justin played with packet radio and built a Dick Smith Commander 2m radio along with his OM Wally VK5TW. Wally was his biggest inspiration and Justin outlined how and when his dad got into amateur radio back in 1957. Justin amateur radio inspirations included Geoff Taylor VK5TY SK , Richard Rogers VK7RO, Rex Moncur VK7MO and Neil Sandford SK. Justin outlined some of the amateur radio interests in satellites, packet radio, 630m, weak signal digital models, microwaves, DMR/DSTAR, SDRs and SOTA to name a few. Some of Justin's other interests include A Cappella Gospel singing, geocaching and bushwalking. Justin then showed a virtual tour of his shack and the projects on the bench in the shack. Thanks to Warren VK7WN and Justin VK7TW for sharing his life and passion for amateur radio.
