| PMR seems to have sprung into life following this corona virus thing. Had some good DX's over here in the NW.
Happy days. | |

| I’m loving a bit of PMR action here in Essex / Kent, having great fun during the lockdown & it’s rekindled my interest in the whole radio hobby... | |

| Conditions for 446 today and tomorrow are very good.
Plenty more users now on the air.

| Hi Ant.
Not sure there are sadly at the moment,
I am over on the other side of Essex and had a few contacts towards East London, Raleigh and Canvey Island on pmr.
I can just hear the Clacton amateur repeater not far from your qth but you will need your foundation license to use this.
