This was a successful activation with 27 QSOs - three of them using an Yaesu FT-4X - a cheap Chinese handheld and RH770 whip to work MM0FMF on his handheld in his bedroom which give Andy a SOTA Complete, Steve MM0XPZ near Greenock was worked and then an S2S QSO with Colwyn MM0YCJ/P on GM/SS-184 Middlefield Law.
I found an issue with the tiny FT4-X - when talking into the microphone the display fogs up with breath moisture, so you cannot then read the frequency! After the 3 QSOs I switched on my KX2 on 20m, 30m, and 40m and made another 24 QSOs, but condx were poor I felt.
After these photos were taken and before we left the summit, I was overcome with âthe runsâ and later on back at our hostelry, sickness, so this put paid to a visit yesterday to SS-177 Wether Law and SS-029 Broad Law today, most unfortunate, as I particulary looking froward to Broad Law but was simply too weak to contemplate climbing. Now we are back home and I am feeling a little better than I was yesterday at this time.
