My name is Conrad Farlow and I was born on December 6th,1965. I am currently studying full time for a M Eng (Hons) in Electronics & Telecomms at Bradford University in West Yorkshire.

While I have built many electronic devices for use in the radio 'shack' I felt that it was time to fill in the 'gaps' in my knowledge and there were plenty of gaps! 

I am really enjoying my time at University, I needed a challenge and I most certainly have one now!

Previously I was  Musician and Sound engineer by profession and had been since around 1987, I grew very disillusioned with the music industry and desperately needed a change in career. 

Radio has been an interest for a long time and hopefully in a few years time it will be my profession. I would also like to give something back to Amateur Radio and hopefully the knowledge gained obtaining my degree will allow me to do this.

I do all my operating from the site of North Wakefield Radio Club G4NOK, who not only allow me almost unlimited access to the site but also allow me to put these huge eme arrays up and use up all their real estate!  The site is fantastic for VHF DXing and I am privileged to have use of the shack. NWRC is vibrant and friendly club with around 60 members, please click on the link above and see what it's all about.

I would like to publicly thank the NWRC for it's continued support, without these facilities I would be QRT. 

 On 6m I have 181 DXCC , 34 WAZ and 889 grids. I am currently active on 2m eme and I have 276 initials as of 3rd of September 2001.On 2m I have 78 DXCC and 429 grids I have a 50,144 and 432 WAC and hope to get a 1296 WAC one day!

I am actively working on returning to eme at the moment. I hope to be QRV on 2m, 23cms, 13cms and 3cms eme within 3 months.
