Early days for alerting but I think there will be more than two of us with 23cm FM on the Saturday. I would encourage others to take their 23cm kit.

If anyone is interested in 23cm SSB or CW, I would take my FT817 and 7-element Yagi.

Whilst currently not able to commit to anything further afield, I should be able to get out on Billinge Hill for a few hours.

Not the best for 23cm to the north its worth a try. Closer to the date I may be able to look at somewhere like Longridge Fell or even Hutton Roof Crags.

Ditto for SSB, otherwise I’ll just take FM for weight saving.

Is anyone interested in 4m?

I could be if there’s an opportunity for 4m S2S

I’ll be out for it, depending on weather and how I feel, it might just be my local one G/LD-049 or maybe something else for a change.

I’ll definitely have 23cm and can also take 4mtr

Depends on the WX but I shall try to be somewhere in Southern GM to work G/LD&NP summits on 2m/70cm/23cm & 13cm. I’m not coming down to stay in Windermere or the LD as it’s simply not possible to find sensibly priced accommodation at short notice.

Looking good to be part of the action. Possibly in company with M0TKF.

There’s a 6m contest on the Sunday if anyone wants to qualify a summit on 6m:

You can get contacts and give away points without having to submit a log.

I’m hoping to be up there on Saturday, can do 23cm SSB or FM, my only portable Yagi is a 5-element.
