Hi Gareth, thought you might have got a few responses by now from a few in the know. 17m and 20m should be fine - you never know I might get my aging antenna replaced by then. You could always give the 6m and 10m a bash so the non-competitive chasers can grab more points for the 6/10m challenge.
For me I’d prefer 40m but realise that might not be possible, equipment-wise. It’s just the skip distance that means lots of European activations on 20m or 17m, I simply can’t hear but 40m is fine.

P.S. you didn’t mention CW or phone? Not a brass pounder myself.
I was hoping to take a small digital modes setup on holiday but I’m having trouble sorting out a small multi-mode digital interface between my Windows tablet and the KX3.
Apart from watching as much of the Le Mans 24hr race as possible over the first weekend, I’m hoping to do as little as possible. The SOTA activation will only be feasible if the temps aren’t too high: there’s absolutely no cover on that mountain.
