[quote=“G8ADD, post:20, topic:11262”]Mull and Arran[/quote]Favourite locations for geology student field trips, which usually seem to happen at Easter, carefully arranged to coincide with the wettest possible weather. (I chose somewhere much hotter and drier for my final year’s project.)

Did you get a sandstorm? :smile:

No, the local hazzards were biting flies, puff adders, mambas and cobras. The occasional large wild animals usually kept their distance.

NX-09 WAB Square

EU-123 Scottish coastal island

Keep listening but conditions not great, having said that I’ve worked 3 of them on 5 Mhz, 10 Mhz and 14 Mhz :yum:

Not a sniff here on any band - totally dead!

Same here on the Wirral Nothing heard except a few faint snatches of CW

Make that 5 bands now the latest being 18 Mhz and 3.5 Mhz :smirk:

The advantage of a near all water ground path. Well done. Glyn

I could just about detect that Andy was in there on 14Mhz.
The others, nada, zilch…

For one brief moment I heard the faintest hint of someone that I think was Paul on 5.403, but nothing from anyone else as yet.

Nothing heard from the island here at anything more than “I guess there might be something there” levels, though I’ve heard one or two CW stations apparenty working them. I hope they all manage to make enough contacts to get the points…

I worked Paul on 5.4035 OK, but could barely tell he was there on 3.666. Waiting now for 7 megs. Seems they lucked out with the WX.

Damn the prop gods, they tease :open_mouth:

Heard the call on 14295 for 15 seconds then GONE argghhhhhhh :grimacing:

Afterwards heard DD5LP (5/7) work Colywn :wink:

still tuned in case it returns :smirk:

Oops it’s getting embarrassing, 144 Mhz added to the tally just now. :wink:
