Just finished up on 3 rock in Dublin and I'm delighted to say I've had my first qso on 10Ghz with GD0EMG. Also, my first qso's on 23cm outside of EI including GM4CXM, G3VKV, G4EAT, G4PBP. Well done,Tony! What an excellent return for a "First time out". Pity
that a few more 10GHz paths didn't do too well, but maybe that will come with
your increasing experience...it's hard work (been there, got the Tee-shirt,
etc.!) so, continue the good work and the best of results to you!
Regards, Mike, G3PFR

Yeah, certainly wasnt easy! It was windy and occasionly rainy. What are the best contests or activity weekends to look out for? I have the calender from the RGSB website, but as an outing to 3 rock is 6 hours return trip from my qth I only want to do that journey when I there's going to be activity.

As I have mentioned before I will be holidaying in Wales 26 July to 7 August and maybe we can make a sked for then? 73 Richard G3CWI

Hi Tony
The weather is almost always a challenge. I was lucky with the weather at the weekend, just a little windy.
These are the dates and times of the 10GHz contests for the rest of the year.
May 1st 10GHz Cumulative 31-May 0900 - 2000 Jun 2nd 10GHz Cumulative 21-Jun 0900 - 2000 Jul 3rd 10GHz Cumulative 26-Jul 0900 - 2000 Aug 4th 10GHz Cumulative 23-Aug 0900 - 2000 Sep 5th 10GHz Cumulative 27-Sep 0900 - 2000 Oct 432MHz & up Arranged by VHFCC 3-Oct to 4-Oct 1400 - 1400
We may be able to have a more local contact at the beginning of August as I am planning a holiday in Cork, Kerry and Clare in early August and I want to bring the 10GHz gear over.
regards
