G4VFL finally got “G/” complete on Saturday 12/9/2020

Some stats:-

First Summit G/SE-005 Botley Hill 27/12/2009

Last Summit G/SC-003 Beacon Batch 12/09/2020

Some summits were used as contest sites for the UKAC so have an unusual high number of QSOs the list below contains a summary of both totals.

The 7MHz were some early G/SE summits once I moved to the Lakes and got serious I moved to 2m plus other VHF+ bands.

Bands       QSOs              Non Contest QSOs

7MHz        96                96

50MHz       158               50

70MHz       605               589

144MHz      2076              1664

433MHz      401               131

1240MHz     278               196

2.3GHz      129               66

The kit for the most part has been the Wouxun 950 / 980 with a LiPo 4S batt and vertical dipoles on 2m and 4m at 4m AGL. 23cm and 13cm has been the SG-LABs xverter driven from a FM Handi, the antennas being a yagi.

Well done Andrew. Having done Tarn Crag last autumn I have activated all but the new Hensbarrow Down, I think. It will be a while before I get there - we did the Beacon some time back so I don’t feel much urgency in doing the substitute. :unamused:
Wales next? Or have you already done it?

Congratulations Andrew, well done, some of the last ones must have been difficult considering the bad weather we have had of late.

Good stuff Andrew. Now I need you to visit assorted GM/SS summits so I can complete them on any band but preferably 13cms. :slight_smile:

Enjoy having completed G, there are few members in that club.
