First Overseas Members

A warm welcome to Wayne (WA3VAT), John (9M6JC) and Armstrong (9M6BZ) to Crocodile Rock Amateur Group (CRAG). Wayne, John and Armstrong are old friends of Bob (GM0DEQ) being the first overseas members of CRAG.

Wayne is an old CW chum of 22 years (based in Baltimore, Maryland, USA) and now operates CW using the Flex SDR. Wayne is also a keen and capable musician playing both the Scot's and Irish pipes and can be found HERE. Over the years Wayne has remained a good friend interested in all things Scot's.

John and Armstrong (of Scot's decent) are both good friends of Bob (GM0DEQ) when he visited 9M2 and 9M6 some 18 years ago in 1994. Both John and Armstrong (based in Borneo, Malaysia) showed exceptional kindness and hospitality and are a credit to the amateur fraternity. John and Armstrong (the first 9M6 to operate from 9M0) can be found on QRZ.com with links to youtube of their endeavours.

Thankyou (Terima Kahsi) and welcome  auld friends...
