Reference the IOM group activity by
GD3YXM, GD3XTZ and
GD0MRF, thank you for the opportunity to work GD for the
first time and for generating lots of great activity. Well done.
GD3YXM, thanks Dave for the phone call on Sunday
afternoon, telling me you were active then using the kite antenna, I had just
stumbled home from the Doctor, my Flu had got worse during the day....'' get to
bed and stay there'' , he said. As you know Dave before doing that
I fired up my transmitter and had a great contact with you, your
signal peaking over S9.
I'm not sure who was feeling the poorer, you or me, as I could hear the
wind howling in the background , on your mobile phone, as you operated from the
beach at Point of Ayre, I hope you all managed to warm up
again, at the lighthouse.
Earlier I worked Peter (G3LDO) , operating as
GB2CPM, another new one for me.
Only problem now , when there's a lot of activity on the band, one
wonders if one is crushing someone else's DX by just coming on the
air. What a change from the time the band opened first.
Thanks again to all stations worked and the listeners reports, which I find
very helpful, gives one a better 'feel ' for the band.
