Weighing it all up

Hi Richard,

I believe you did the 3 peaks mint box challenge a few years ago. Is there a write up about it, since the photo of you in the snow and ice on Snowdon was excellent. Did you set a radio equipment max weight limit for that exercise ?

It was a number of years before SOTA started but you can perhaps see some of the roots of SOTA in the style of the activations.

It’s interesting to see how different people approach the same
problem. Personally I rather like the frisson of excitement that
relying on one simple system engenders. In that respect the Rock Mite
suits me quite well. While it’s a perfectly viable system you cant be
certain of success and thus one lives with the real possibility of
failure; I like that!

That’s a very sporting attitude, Richard.
