Thanks to all of those who attended our recent SSB field day. Luckily the weather managed to broadly hold off for us, minus around 20 minutes of torrential downpour!
We submitted a log with 52 QSOs and a claimed point total of 2970, fairly impressive for the short duration that the sation was active. Watch this space! When the results are out this page will be updated with how we stack up
Our setup was an 11m fibreglass sotabeams mast and linked dipole, arranged in an inverted V with the centre around 9m above ground level. This antenna was then fed from an IC-7300 running at 100w, and powered by batteries charged with 100% green energy.
Some photos of the event below :), hope all had fun!
