Just to clarify, today I was on GW/NW-044 between 1225 & 1240, then GW/NW-051 between 1333 & 1356. Rucksack radio tool kept putting me on Hope Mountain GW/NW-062. Initially this was due to me not enabling gps on the phone as it eats the battery, later with gps enabled I think it was just down to spotty 3g coverage. BTW I beat my record from Moel Famau back to the car - 10 mins (& very watery eyes).
12m seems to be looking up, I worked an Indonesian & heard a KP4 but it wasn`t his frequency, also a marginal s2s with Lutz DL3SBA on DM/HE036 with 3/3 reports both ways
