Looking back at Saturday, the GB2CCC special event station went very well indeed. We were all on site by 10am and had antennas setup within the hour

  • Fullsize G5RV
  • 5el 70cms beam
  • 2m folded dipole

Radio side of things was a Kenwood TS570D for HF and a Yaesu FT-100D for 2/70, HF conditions did seem poor we kept to 80/40m and managed to log around 81 contacts. Sadly we suffered from jamming which seems to be getting common with special event stations but we kept going regardless!

We had lots of interest from members of the public just walking passed as well as people requiring their sponsor forms signed off and passed quite a few greetings messages on 70cms. The station was closed down at 6pm and everyone as offsite by around 7pm.
