Hello Everyone
I went up on the trig point at Ditching and met a fellow radio enthusiast Toby . He was getting into the PMR net on Monday 6/6/22 evening . I set up myself and had really good chat and a coffee. I got into the net as well and was a great evening , with a possible one way contact to IIford . I will check with Ray the chair man as he could hear him. Over all a great bunch of lads to chat to awesome and Thank you .
Here is a couple of photos of camp:)
Regards and 73s

I envy the way British CB ops go into the field for weekly nets, or just random fun days. This is something not seen in the US unless it is for a big event like ARRL Field Day.

I look forward to seeing more of your reports and photography.
