Hi all, back from Peyre Brune on SOTA F/SO-002.
Thanks to all guys contacted this morning on 40M, band was VERY QRM there but 20 contacts are in the log. To G4SSH, when I called on 30M, the owner of the place I was just came to visit me, so of course I stopped keying in order to introduce myself and our hobby, when he left, it was too late for me because 01h30 road drive to be back, sent one last call on 7 MHz SSB, got F8DBW and go QRT.
I did a video that I will upload on YouTube.com and will give here the link when ready.
See you on SOTA.

Hi Chris,

I heard about F4DZY/p on 7032 from HB9RE, but I had the same problems
with qrm on 40m today, so nil copy. sri
The qrm was from 7.029-7.033 with 59++.
From time to time a russian lady relayd groups of 5 numbers
on 7.031 on SSB, like in the 1970/80s.

Hope to cu from the next summit!
Vy73 à bientôt de Fritz DL4FDM,HB9CSA

Thanks for the videos Chris. They are a great asset to SOTA and I will show them at the Club later to show how it works.

I too have never heard my keying before, but think I was worth better than 559 from F/PO-252 !!! Just joking my friend.

In reply to G4CMQ:
Yes David, I think too when looking again the video, you were 559 when I heard you 1st time HI, the same as G4OWG…
See you soon, regards.
