Wednesday the 13th of July 2022 was a very interesting on the air activity with Group members at various locations.
Ashley - M0IXW and Pete M-H went up to Owd Betts, Rochdale where they were able to hear both Phil - M0KPH, and also Pete - 2E0PGX and Chris - M0LXG.
Phil - M0KPH was /M on the way to the NARSA AGM at Warrington. Running a Yaesu FT-7800E sat on the passenger seat set to 5W and a Taurus 2m/70cm aerial on the car.
Despite this minimal set up he was most impressed to be able to speak with Ashley - M0IXW and Pete M-H virtually all the way to Warrington.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t hear Pete - 2E0PGX and Chris - M0LXG, but they later reported that Phil x M0KPH was coming in loud and clear on a number of occasions.
Pete - 2E0PGX and Chris - M0LXG decided to meet up at Heaton Park, Higher Blackley. Pete - 2E0PGX also took hid buddipol in the hope of making some contacts on 40m. They were later joined by Ashley - M0IXW and Pete M-H.
