Gareth Edwards

My day job is as an engineer for Xilinx but I'm also interested in audio and music electronics, RF, sound design and post-lunch naps.

I used to be on IRC but forgot my nick recovery password so now I'm not.

I've been licensed as a radio amateur since 1996 with the callsign GM7WFT. I'm learning CW and would like to get properly started with SOTA.

I'm a Civilian Instructor with the RAF Air Cadets, with roles as Wing STEM coordinator, Squadron Radio officer and Adjutant.
