I went up Freeholds Top (G/SP-011) last saturday and kept a paper log for the first time in a while. Unfortunately it did not survive the descent very well, I have managed to decipher all the entries except for one:
10:58, 2m FM, received 55, sent 59+, name Alan.
If this is you, could you remind me of your callsign please.
I did intend to use 2m ssb only but the wind was too strong for the pole and beam. I tried with my rucsac antenna (1/2 wave mobile whip) but was only succesful with fairly local stations.
I must send my apologies to M0JDK who struggled valiantly to exchange reports, I ended up stood on the trig point holding the boom of the beam and using the driven elements as a horizontal dipole…but no joy, thanks for trying.
Seeya, Dick.
