Faulty aerial cable

Noticed NS was rather weak the last few days. So checked my feeder and found it open circuit, so ordered replacement from W&S, thatw as also faulty! Anyway, ended up repairing both!

Has a trip to Newlands Corner last Sat, nice hot dog from their cafe but coverage was pretty rubbish on vhf/uhf. 80M was ok though. John 2E0MOC was also in attendance.

Hi all, some photos from a session at High Clandon early in the new year. It was -4C and I spent most of the time on 80M with some weird "long range" groundwave prop.
I also had a long chat with Martin M1MRB and he was /m on Epsom Downs running his MKRS80 80M kit radio.

There were a few others that made it to a freezing cold Ridge, namly Adam G7CRQ and Tim 2E0TTA. Adam was using 4M and Tim was on 2M SSB. John stuck to 20M and I switched between 80M, 6M, 70cms and some 2M when Tim had gone.
