Morning folks
Well it started out as join in the 2m contest from Kitt hill and take me beam up there etc. But then thought sod it take me HF gear as well and go up little earlier and set up both antennas on such a bright lovely morning.
Come on 07:00UTC were on air and clocking some stations already bands not too bad till about 08:15 when they seemed to wain off and go to sleep as i sat by the trig point on the summit. Whilst running the Sota side of things.
And yes one day will venture to another Sota LOL. But useful to catch few more S2S’s and me very first S2S on 2m as well. Well pleased with as only took couple minutes to move from car and push onto the trig point so not connected to the car at time whilst holding and talking and trying to write down details as well not easy but funny.
