Behiye Esma Öte became interested in amateur radio at the age of 11 but the age restriction in Turkey meant she had to wait until she was 13 before getting her licence TA5ABO in 2018
Like any young person she was interested in Space and after passing the exam that’s required to get a license she has been receiving signals from Space. These have included Slow Scan TV pictures from the International Space Station and the signal from Turkey’s amateur radio satellite ITUpSat-1.

The QRM Eliminator is inserted into the feedline from the trx to the antenna without any additional modifications required to the radio. The box has a built-in PTT control which enables the Eliminator to stay connected during transmit. An additional auxiliary receiving antenna is required, though, like a 2m antenna or simply a couple of meters wire in the shack. The unwanted signal is received with both antennas resulting in different phases.

In a recent article, RadioResource International reported:
The U.K. Home Office said that Airwave network likely will not be turned off until at least the beginning of 2024 due to delays with the Emergency Services Network (ESN), which is intended to replace the Airwave network for the country’s emergency services.
