Hi all, Just an update on the tower. Incidentally on thinking about the incident with the front support leg; it decided to drop down or lower itself whilst I was towing the tower; it basically just ac

Nice one Marc. Even more competition! Not too bad in cw! 73 Tony, G4LDL/G4L

I will remind all at Club tonight. I will also mention that I will NOT be on for 2m next Tuesday or 70cms the following Tuesday. Tony, G4LDL.

Great job Marc. Unlucky having to change rigs in the middle as that really does screw up any rhythm you've got going. Me do WPX! I go on and work a few if I can but never a serious effort but I ALWAYS

Well done for giving it a go Neal. As WPX is not something I normally do my HF antennas are down for general refurbishment at the moment. Wrt to making sure that "other things" don't clash with contes

Tony Bettley G4LDL Please Marc.

I thought the Newbury Rally was not on this year but a look at the NADARS web site says it is on on 26th July - which happens to be the same weekend as Friedrichshafen. Also, as advised by Peter, 2E0C

Interesting one. The actual ITU allocation stand alone “2” is for United Kingdom and its’ overseas territories/crown dependencies. The E, I, M, W etc are the secondary “region” locators. (So what woul

Hi all, but particularly Geoff, 2E0HFV. Seems as though VM/NTLW have tightened their spam filters. Been trying to send/reply to an email to Geoff but it shows as FAILED with an error VM603, to do with

As I recall we started slowly last year because those of us who normally go /p couldn’t or wouldn’t do that. I certainly can’t make much impression from my home QTH whereas I think some of the Herefor

Yup. I now have 10 of the 400w 49:1 9 of which I will bring to club tomorrow as well. These are all 259 connections. I will open one up beforehand so we can see what’s inside. I also have some lower p
