| Just got my first 446 QSO on channel 8. I was parked up on 27 MHZ near the west end of Newcastle airport runway and called out on ch 8 and got a return from Nissan Sunderland 13.39 miles away (21.54 km). Just on its little antenna  | |

| Soz for delay Gravedigger911 still getting the hang of the new forum. It was a Baofeng UV82 and I'm assuming it was a 5w. (Still trying to figure that out as well  ) | |
