Monday 28/11/11

Colin (M6BOY) my son was over from Ireland for a few days and managed to join us for our play evening.

Colin had built a GQRP Club "Limerick Sudden" Receiver Kit for 40 metres and this evening turned out to be a good chance to connect it to a good antenna. Stations from all over Europe were logged.

Steve (G1MPW) showed us an Elecraft power/SWR project he purchased from ebay. We tested this with the trusty FT101ZD and it seemed to be working fine.

I got involved with helping Chris (2E0CTH) with the setup and first alignment of his MKARS80 transceiver. We will continue next week.

A very happy M1MRB 


All this as well as a lot of discussions and tea drinking.
