My name is Tim Roberts, and I live in the western suburbs of Brisbane, Australia. I cannot have a tower in my yard, but am fortunate to have a 20m pine tree against the back fence. I have the centre point of a G5RV at about 10m, and its two arms oriented roughly North-South and East-West. This is provding good tx and rx on 20 at time of writ9ing (2008)

On the roof of the house there ia a Diamond X-7000 (5m above the roof), for local repeater use, a 6 element 2m rotatable yagi and a 1/4 wave 6m vertical.

My equipment includes IRLP node 6556.

My interests include SSTV and PSK31 both on HF and VHF. I and some mates have been experimenting with SSTV over IRLP with mixed success.

Any particular reason you're adding the bot flag to new sys admins? Hardaker 11:10, 10 June 2008 (CDT)

The bot flag, if nothing else, hides the edits (by default) in the recent changes list. The flag is supposed to be for automatted editing "robots". You actually did give it to my account, but I removed it because I didn't think it should be on my account (and was actually causing me a problem I think with the recent changes page, but I honestly don't remember). It is hard to find time to do stuff. There are a number of things I want to do to the pages but I haven't had the time yet... Hardaker 16:01, 10 June 2008 (CDT)

Time to turn on sign-in editing and captchas yet? Those spammers are getting annoying :-) 168.150.236.43 08:03, 19 August 2008 (CDT)
