Apologies to all, I forgot all about it last week.
Would it be better to try a frequency lower down the band away from the big boys where it tends to be a bit quieter, maybe somewhere around 7125?
Don’t do chat box, so please can net participants post on this thread what frequency they are calling/listening on?
73, John

No posts on here and nothing heard again last night on 40, has everyone’s computer got jealous and forbid you all to use a mic?

Completely slipped my mind last night with grand kids over so my apologies.
(Not up to scratch at the moment either hence Gary taking over call signs again for a bit.)

Best thing i ever bought the diesel heater so i have to look after it. Can sit out here i my shack with thick frost outside and only have a T-shirt on. Stinks diesel and kerosene gets in your skin.
