10-year-old radio ham from Swadlincote

The Burton Mail reports ten year old Ben Cridland from Swadlincote
takes first steps into the world of amateur radio

The newspaper says:

Amateur radio is usually seen as a hobby for older people, and at the
Burton Amateur Radio Club (in the UK), this was no different, with all
15 paying members of the group either reaching or being in their
senior years, apart from one special little boy.

Ben Cridland, from Swadlincote first started going to the weekly
meetings, held at the Stapenhill Institute, with his father, Rob
Cridland G7LAS three years ago - and now he is completely hooked.

The 10-year-old explained that his love for amateur radio comes from
the number of different opportunities that come from being involved.

He said: "There are just so many things that you can do in it (amateur
radio), there are so many opportunities to do things and so many
people in the actual community. Everyone in radio is just nice. I
actually quite like being the youngest, because I like to prove that
young people can do anything anyone older can do. There's no one close
to my age that I know who does this."
