South East Sunday Net 27.285 USB 11.00 to 12.00

Hello all

Yes I've been out and taken part in yet another net and here is my review.

Having been shopping for some lawn mower parts, I arrived at Polhill, Badgers Mount (JO01BH).
Set up the Anytone AT-6666 and the Sirio 4000 on a mag mount and listened in.
When the right moment appeared I called "QSK CI2290 standing by". I was then called in by the chair and joined the net.

Here is my list of stations that I worked and heard from my spot on Polhill

TE11--Adam--Near Basildon--Essex (The Chairman)
CT331--Jon--Rye Harbour--East Sussex
CH0G--Clive--Near Ashford--Kent
CT700--Crawley Down--West Sussex (heard only)
CT4092--Tom--Blackheath--S E London (heard only)
LT727--Dave--Elstree--Hertfordshire
DR004--Tom--Tilbury--Essex (heard only)
CT1303--Robert--Snodland--Kent
CT4169--Martin--Hastings--Kent
KP441--Steve--Henfield--West Sussex (heard only)
TE032--Adam--2 Tree Island--Essex

The net did over run by an hour, which was due to the many other stations that called in.

I'm sure if you search Facebook you can find more information.

That's it for

Hello all

So on Sunday the 5/12/2021 , I made a "last minute dot com" decision to head to a bit of high ground, on the Kent/Surrey border, and see if I could call into the net.

I set up and called out "QSK CI 2290 standing by". 

I was acknowledged and joined in.

Hear are the stations I worked 

JS 07--James--Bluebell Hill--Kent
CT 3911--John--Isle of Wight
Little Lewie--Chris--Reigate--Surrey
KP 441--Steve--Henfield--West Sussex

It was at this point that I found out that I had made a rookie error.
My radio batteries needed charging! So I then became a listening station.

Here is the list of stations that I heard

TM 598--Cal--Stansted--Essex
LT 727--Dave--Elstree--Hertfordshire
CT 684--Lee--Chelmsford--Essex
CM 39--Gary--Rochester--Kent
CT 331--Jon--Rye Harbour--East Sussex
Coyote--Shooters Hill--S E London
HL 21--Frank--Hailsham--East Sussex
CT 4169--Martin--Hastings--East Sussex
TE 032--Adam--2 Tree Island--Essex

There were many other stations out there and if you have a couple of spare hours on a Sunday morning I would recommend give the guys a shout.

That's it for now

Hello all

I got the urge for a bit of radio on Sunday (06-03-2022), so headed to Ide Hill in Kent with joining the South East Sunday Net as my goal.
The net is on channel 28 USB on the midblock.

I entered a busy car park, but did find a space near the end which was in the mud (explains why it was empty).

I set up the Anytone AT-6666 and Sirio 4000 on the roof, which got some funny looks from people, children and the pets!

I called "QSK 2290 on the side" and waited.
I was answered by James the chairman and then waited for my turn to be passed around.  

Here is the list of station that I heard (H) and or worked.

JS 07--James--Bluebell Hill--Kent--The Chairman
AMC 1966--Boris--Bexhill--East Sussex
CT 3355--Pete--  ?? (H)
CT 4196--Martin--Hastings--East Sussex
KP 441--Steve--Steyning--West Sussex (H)
TE310--Kevin--Southend--Essex
CT 4361--Jerry--Fairlight--East Sussex (H)
CT 4362--Chris--Reigate--Surrey
TE 003--Colin--  ??  (H)
TE 032--Adam--2 Tree Island--Essex
NT 02-- Dale--Langdon Hills--Essex (H)
LT 727--Dave--Elstree--Hertfordshire
CT 3722--Darren--Ashford--Kent (H)
CT 700--Dave--Crawley Down--West Sussex
GB 23--Paul--Crawley--West Sussex (H)

There were many more stations out there and I must say well done to all under the difficult conditions of bleed over, cross modulation and a constant low pitch tone.

That's it for now, but I will be back in the future

Hello all

It's Sunday 26-06-2022 and I've been able to get out for some morning radio.

Watch out Radio Corner, Ashdown Forest, here I come with the Anytone AT-6666 and the Solarcon A99. No amp no power mic.

So after a flick around the bands, I found the South East Sunday Net or the Morning Net already underway. 
The net was on channel 28 mid-block USB or 27.285MHz.

So a quick "QSK 2290 on the side" and waited for my turn.

I was then invited in by Chairman James and the net continued.

Here is the list of stations I worked and heard.

JS 07--James--Bluebell Hill--Kent
KP 441--Steve--Henfield--West Sussex--Heard only
TW 01--Vince--Hastings--East Sussex
TE 032--Adam--Chelmsford--Essex
TE 011--Alan--Langdon Hills--Essex
TE 121--Tom--Harrow--North West London
GE 2020--Matt--Hastings--Kent
CT 3855--Pete--All Hallows--Kent
35 HL--Wolfgang--Vienna--Austria--Heard only
1 Tango 02--Steffen--Venice--Italy--Heard only
AM 059--Ron--Detling Hill--Kent
AM 101--Billy--Detling Hill--Kent
CT 4169--Martin--Hastings--East Sussex
30 AT 102--Sammy--Spain
MR 121--Matt--Copthorne--West Sussex

There were more stations on but with the strong continental stations sharing the channel it was sometime difficult to make contact.

That's it till next time
