History of trig pillars

G4OIG · 19 April 2016 10:26

I chose not to use the trig points to support my pole out of respect Pedro, especially the one that I have shown in the photograph that I posted. Besides my Portuguese is not good - in case someone asked me about it you understand. I must say though that everyone I met on the hills was very friendly. Maybe back in CT/AL later this year, but most likely without radio as I will not have a car.

Hi Gerald

I understand.
Usually, people are friendly.

But, even in Portuguese, sometimes it’s difficult to explain what you’re doing in a summit with a fishing pole!

You could tell them you are waiting for the tide to come in, and ask if they have heard the weather forecast!

Hi Ed.

I prefer to say that the fish suffer a mutation and some of them now are walking in the hills…
And that’s because of solar cycle!

Here’s an interestingly eroded one… my mast fitted straight down the middle and appeared out of the bottom. I won’t ask where as I am the only one to activate it (so far). Sguman Coinntich GM/WS-132
