You certainly needed to know formulae, and how to manipulate it from its ‘normal’ presentation. I had heard it said that the RAE was about the same difficulty level as an ‘A’ level. The RAE wasn’t easy and I may well have just scraped through. My glory only lasted a little while, as it was discovered that someone who was just a few weeks younger than me passed the RAE in the May of ‘82. I made it into one of the main Kent newspapers for this achievement (I was also congratulated (read: embarrassed) in front of the whole school during a morning assembly. I believe the exam reference was 765 (pt I & II). At the time I was the youngest person to pass the Radio Amateurs Examination (RAE), which was, at the time, administered by the City & Guilds of London Institute (CGLI). I have been into radio since I was about 7 years old, and a transmitting radio ham since the age of 14 (1982).

I have been given a few ideas regarding content, etc., some of which I am putting in place.īelow is a little bit about me and my story, in radio: I have had fantastic feedback regarding my site and it is really appreciated.

Experimenting with a very makeshift setup and loft antennas until I can get something better arranged (should be sorted in 4 weeks, or less, once we have finished decorating, etc).

Hi, I'm Sean and this is my website, which is dedicated to all things radio.īig news: I have just moved to a new QTH - about 7 miles to the East of the old QTH. I am trying to catch them but during the big site update, I might have missed some! If the format is underlined and in a different colour to the main text, such as this example: mp3, it has a valid file link. Please excuse any broken links (some of the audio links to WAV and OGG format files are not ready yet, but the MP3 format ones have been done. tHERE SHOULD BE NO DIFFERENCE THE WEBSITE, IT MAY EVEN PERFORM SLIGHTLY BETTER.
