Richard, Andy, LF,


I can hear the G4JNT beacon clearly in South Devon w= ith a 2m tuned loop during the daytime, and that's probably more like 250km.= G3XIZ is also a strong daytime signal, again at over 250km. I also heard G3= GNR very strongly calling G8BKE at 2140 utc on Tuesday 5 May, but I don't kn= ow his QTH.

The best way of getting started is to set up a sked=20= via this reflector and take it from there. You can also look at the G3XZM an= d G4WGT online "grabbers" to see if there is any activity.<= BR>

Dear Richard,

With only about 40 odd NoVs in existence, and not all active, there probably=
are not many within 100km of you! But rather more than 100km is not unusual=20=
during daytime, so don't worry too much.
