My wife an I will be in the DM/BW region in our small motorhome for a couple of weeks in August and September. I intend to start in the NW of the region, concentrating on unique 8 and 10 point summits, although some of my previously activated summits may get included if the opportunity is too good to miss!
Two points.
Firstly, I have previously avoided 2m when working outside of the UK. Am I likely to have much success on 2m SSB from the higher summits? Do I need to learn a little German script for successful QSOs or will I get away with using English for calling CQ and a basic SOTA exchange? Obviously I will alert a day or two in advance as the trip progresses. I’ll be operating HF as usual too.
Secondly, if anyone is going to be around the same time I’m always keen to meet up for joint activations so either comment here or send me a DM.
