On Wednesday the 6th of July 2022 members of the Group were out and about giving 40m a go.
We did intend to operate on 7,140.00 MHz LSB, but there was too much interference, so we moved to 7.129.00 MHz.
Phil - M0KPH and Pete M-H were at their usual spot in the Lord Raglan car park using but we’re experiencing S9 of noise. A quick tune around, whilst waiting for everybody else to join in, heard stations in Central Europe and Ireland.
Ashley - M0IXW was operating from Owd Betts, Rochdale And could hear all Group members.
Chris - M0LXG was over at Grain’s Bar and could get Ashley, but not aphil and Pete M-H. Chris put this down to issues with his ARU, but Phil thought that Chris would’ve been comfortably received had the noise floor been lower.
