M1EYP SOTA Website Update

It’s been very humbling to have had my website - http://tomread.co.uk - mentioned favourably several times recently on this reflector. And a little embarrassing, as the last update on there was September 2017. That’s about 500 activations, and a good number of new “uniques” out-of-date.

Well it will be a long haul to bring it back, but I’ve made a start.

All the reports and photos are on now up to the end of 2017. That’s about 75 activation reports added.

The new or updated pages are:

The Cloud G/SP-015 - The Cloud SP-015

I am now (just) less than a year out of date. Mind you, I did do 300+ activations in that year, so a long way to go yet! The next ones to go on will be the Lanzarote summits, and then some Snowdonia activations for which I don’t think I ever put proper reports or photos on SOTAwatch, so that will be proper new stuff.

Activation reports and lots of photos from the EA8 Lanzarote summits last year, now on the website http://tomread.co.uk
