Lots of static crashes and bangs here, but I
heard G3XIZ yesterday, G3UNP this afternoon, and G4GDR (RST 449) is valiantly
calling CQ as I type this. I think that ops find that the warm weather and the
QRN is a bit of a turn-off.
No EU activity whatsoever observed on 137
kHz over the week-end, although the QRN was reasonably low on Sunday morning
before the T-storms started brewing up.
Our local Quick-fit use a sort of
air-powered clamp to squeeze stubborn tyres off rims, but if the tail-wheel is
still attached to the Spitfire, this may not be an option!..
Hi All
LF/MF acty has
been poor lately so I have diverted to changing a spitfire
tyre.This is
the tail wheel, the rim is aluminium but the tyre is tight and
does not
come off in the normal way. Does anyone know the technique?

All quiet here in 11 Group Mal. I hope to be back on the 502 Kc/s band
shortly. I've been busy with projects and not hearing anybody apart from a few
static crashes.
Can't help you with the Spitfire tail wheel but I could repair the TR9
and the 'Pip-squeak' if you need it!
