Hi All
David G0MRF has now returned home and left me a present in the form of a
136 KHz transmitter, variable inductor, his trusty bucket'o'wire coil
and we left the antenna up!
After some tests today and some fiddling to get the station into a more
suitable place for permanent operations I am happy to report I am fully
operational on 136 KHz and ready for skeds and more random QSO's
Made a couple of contacts today so the antenna is fully functioning and
still up after the wind of the past few days.
So GM now has a permanent 136K station and glad to see it on the band
again.
Can do hand cw and QRSS if so desired.
Thanks to David I am happy with QRSS and Argo so hopefully will be able
to make some good QSO's
I am particularly interested in making QSO's into EU with many GM - DX
firsts still to be made.
Thanks to David for his patience and company this weekend and great to
be part of the record breaking contact team!
I must also thank him for his generosity in leaving this equipment here
and you can be assured it will in use!
Thanks all and see you on the band
Regards
