40th Birthday 2m GM activity this Wednesday

Yes, Andy; many thanks for that. Glad to catch you again. Unsurprisingly it was the only GM s2s as I was so cold by noon that I decided to pack up. SS-094 was one of the very few hills in the area that we ran out of time and energy to activate. A few more nearer Moffat so maybe we shall have another go sometime.
Currently making plans for the smaller hills near Inverness. We did a lot of the larger ones many years ago and know we now lack the strength do do them for SOTA. Hope to catch you then.
73,
Rod

Brilliant reports and fantastic photos. I remain utterly jealous that you guys did this, this week - and I didn’t!

Colin @M1BUU has made me wonder what my mode breakdown from activations is - as I do like to use as many different modes as I can in most activations!

Considering my favourite mode is CW, and I am keen on datamodes, I am slightly surprised that 60% of my activating is on phone. Probably because of VHF contesting!

Hi Rod,
GM/CS-096 is a good option for that area as well.
There’s a wind farm track to within 20 yards of the trig point and good views over the Kessock bridge and Moray Firth for a one hour walk up.
