SOTA during national Tandem Club rally, Sussex

Alastair M6ALR and I [with our respective families] are at the Tandem Club national rally in Ringmer, East Sussex 29 May to 4 June 2010. At various times during the week we hope to activate the 4 nearby SOTA summits on the South Downs. G/SE-006 Ditchling Beacon, G/SE-010 Firle Beacon, G/SE-011 Wilmington Hill and G/SE-014 Cliffe Hill. Alerts won’t be at all accurate as extra factors like punctures, long cyclists tea stops, nattering and family morale will play a large part in any ETA. So I will only self spot [probably from the start of the path to the summit - e.g. QRV 40 mins] and be using 144-ssb to reach any chasers followed by a spot of 145 fm. If things get desperate I might give the W3EDP and Z-match an airing.

best wishes
