Nige, I've been preoccupied by 10m and spent a lot of my radio time on there, might find it hard to tear myself from, so you have a good chance of beating me on this 11m challenge. I never did manage Wales on the 10m one this year so I'll be happy if I just get 1 point on the leader board and that 1 point being into 163 div. I'll put shout outs for you Smile

Are these the frequencies permitted. ?


EU/Mid Band – 26.965 (CH1) to 27.405 (CH 40) AM, FM and SSB
27/81 (UK FM Only) – 27.60125 (CH 1) to 27.99125 (CH 40)

Is the triple 5 a no no ?

Please excuse my ignorance 👍😁

T5 or 27.555 USB is the international calling frequency so will be used by many freebanders here but not essential by any means Smile

Finding it hard going, then earlier today I realised that my eq settings were all over the place, not for the first time! After a reset and re entered some new settings I had a nice qso with 75AB01 Alfred for about 20 mins and got great audio feedback from him Smile
Seems I have to help round the house tomorrow getting ready for Christmas decs to go up but will have an eye on the cluster Wink
Maybe hear you soon Stu, best of luck all

Someone slow Tom down, stupid contest anyway lol.
Great contacts being made guys but it gets harder to find new ones to work. This cold spell has frozen my mast and rotator, as well as parts of me lol. The AT group always has lots of Santa stations around and a good quick contact to get itl. Keep it going all
