Pictures were taken by Roy McBride using a Canon FT film camera and Kodak Ektacrome slide film. Click on the images to enlarge them.
Peter is on the left and listening to a local who had some problem or other?
Peter was a licenced ham radio man, his call sign was PY 1 ZAK (now a silent key) he could recieve from his home in this picture but to transmit used to drive in his GRP VW wagon to the top of a hill at the rear of the house and transmit from there, he used a spare battery up there as there as no AC power on his part of the island?
