It was a weekend, so you guessed it. I was out playing radio.
A few things waylaid me today by over an hour from my spot time, sadly this means 2 thing - Temp is up and the atmospheric layers have risen.
Never mind, more than activate. Managed more VK2s than ever before with even a station in Bondi coming back (VK2NNN from memory)
There was not a breath of wind - was truly an amazing spot on the north border of ACT. I have included some pictures of the day. There wasnt much shade… so I made my own!
And YES there was another SNAKE! … a big fat brown. Another top 10 deadliest.
Thanks Wade for the great video and nice to hear you make contact with so many chasers I have worked from Summits. I had a listen for you but no copy at my place but I did hear Andrew talking to you. I am a student of the old morse code and it is a handy tool to have in your activators tool box for sure. A reasonable effort required to learn it but worth it for sure, and it stays with you for life. cheers

I am hoping by sharing my videos, I can “activate” some more chasers and activators. I ran a poll on an F call Facebook group I am a member of 1/3 had not heard of SOTA beyond knowing it involves hills.
To me it is about honing kit, skills and navigation. Also I hope to show the variety of landscapes as well as those that chase where I am.
The videos are getting longer, however soon enough they will be going back to all Scuba Diving as I head to Indonesia.
Yep Sure did. Interesting for me to hear how you hear me and the others. Haven’t heard Darren VK2NNN for ages so good to know he is still active… Thanks!
Wait till we start adding S. American countries with significant wild territory. Then we’ll have Anacondas to deal with…
