I plan to be out on the hills tomorrow, Sunday 13th August, doing a couple of SOTA activations as follows:
01:30 UTC on VK3/VE-241 (unnamed Summit, 6 points)
03:30 UTC on VK3/VE-135 (Lockhart, 6 points)
Frequencies will be 7.032, 10.116 and 14.058 +/- QRM. I will also have 80m and the other HF bands available and am happy to QSY anywhere in the interests of playing with propagation, so if you make contact and want to try another band, just ask.
These will be CW only activations, though I will have SSB capability in reserve for use if I don't manage the required 4 QSOs to qualify the activation.
If the weather is nice (forecast looks promising), if the propagation gods are smiling, and if my co-pilot and I feel like keeping going, I may activate one or two more Summits along the same trail (the Eskdale Spur Track), but I'm not promising anything.
A typical SOTA exchange will consist of signal reports (genuine ones not 5NN!) and I'll send my Summit reference, but if I'm not running a pile-up (unlikely) I'm always happy to chat.
I have posted these details as Alerts on SOTA Watch (www.sotawatch.org) and will post spots on there when I get on the air tomorrow, so if you keep an eye on that you'll see where I'm up to.
Hope to meet some of you on the air tomorrow.
VK2IB/3 was on 7032, now on 3515, next will be 10116 and 14058
