Profile of an LF operator G0AKY

He was born in London at an early age and on the advent of his 18th birthday
he decided to run away to sea to escape from his creditors.
He made many voygages to the new world,but became disenchanted with
a life at sea,which consisted of daily grog and ship's biscuits.
He yearned for more excitement and decided to study for
his masters ticket.
Whilst perusing the Naval Archives he read of the exploits of the notorious
Captain Bligh and promptly followed his example.
The mutiny was a bloodless affair and at the same time he applied to change
his name,by deed poll, to Captain Horatio Fetblower and took over the
Captaincy of the sloop 'Macaroni '.
Realising that a return to England would mean life imprisonment
in Picketts Lockup,the crew of Loafers voted to head for the nearest
island.
This proved to be inhabited by numerous dusky maidens,to whom
Fetblower was extremely partial.
The sloop was beached and the island was explored.
He was intrigued by the method of hut constuction,namely basket weaving
between upright stakes and there and then got the idea for his new loading
coil.
There was a copious supply of barbed wire already tapped in the cargo,
together
with semi-conductors and emigrating bus conductors.
Solar power provided the steam from Hero's Engine and the generator
was soon spinning merrily.
Look out for him on LF from his exotic location and signing XG0AKY
on the Septic Isles
