Hello Peter welcome to the forum.
Would you be kind enough to put a more specific QTH in your profile. The nearest town or city is required for me to issue you a call sign. Let me know when done.

Hello Pete,
I'm not sure if the band was open yesterday. It's surprising no one came back after three hours though!!! Keep trying buddy!!
