No real RX on 4 metres or antenna suitable at present but I am sure we could make it if I was suitably equipped
I used 4m a lot years ago AM for mobile especially over in GI. The band was vy popular and used a lot there for mobile.
Old pye vanguard was common.
I have been neglecting other bands for a while and notice the decline of acty on 137 compared to years ago, and 500 has never really got going because of restrictions by other EU countries. It might pick up next year but the opportunity might have been missed.

All the action is on BS. Having found NIL acty on LF/MF I switched to HF and worked RI1ANF Antartic  CW  on 24 Mhz first call with only 100W did not even have to bother with the Amp. There is DX galore on the higher freqs at present.
LF/MF is getting vy repeative at present, the wheel is being re invented but not as good as the original, getting more OVAL
The other reflector is being ignored by the experimenter and enthusastic radio amateur and used mainly by those interested in Art galleries for abstract paintings
