About Don:
Don was first licensed in 1968 after a brief spell as a BC and MW DXer and then
as an amateur SWL. His main interests have always been in the competitive side
of amateur radio, especially DXing on the LF bands and contesting, although his
station is capable of operation from 160 to 70cm. Don has all current DXCC
entities worked and confirmed.
Don is a past editor of the RSGB’s DX News Sheet and has been a columnist for
various amateur radio magazines since 1983. He currently writes the HF column
for the RSGB’s magazine RadCom. Don has also served on many amateur radio
committees, and is Manager of the IOTA contest.
Don worked in the telecommunications industry for almost 30 years, before taking
early retirement. He now focuses on his amateur radio interests, which he
combines with other travel and social activities. He is married to Janet, and
they have children, Helena and Edward.
