GW4VXE's Station Diary

Some 6m Es in the morning - and interesting at lunchtime. Saw EI4DQ calling W4AS for one period. Didn't hear him at all.

When I was working EA7L on the vertical, I did get a flag from NP4G at -15 which was interesting. Went onto the beam and CQed in that direction but nothing doing. A little later I did see KP4JRS calling VE2WX for one period. And that was pretty much it for the day on 6m - a few odd decodes afterwards but nothing substantial.

In the evening, I did a 'What's So Special about VHF' for the Appledore club. Hope they liked it. It was nice to see Terry G4CHD there. Terry used to teach the RAE course in Cheltenham in the early 1980s. I self-studied, but many, many amateurs in the Gloucestershire area owe their licences to Terry's tuition.
