A nice warm evening for the #144MHz #UKAC last night. Felt like summer at the portable site. A lot of people reporting enhanced conditions, but they seemed about average where I was unfortunately. My first contest since August, so great to be out again 👍 #hamr #hamradio

Nice to be out for the #144MHz #UKAC last night. Quite breezy at the portable site. Conditions about average I'd say. #hamr #hamradio

Went out portable on Saturday to give a few points away in the #VHFNFD contest. Just did #144MHz (left) and #50MHz (right). Activity seemed quite low, although I was only on for a few hours. A pleasant way to spend an afternoon. #hamr #hamradio

Nice to be out for my first #50MHz #UKAC for quite a while. Flat conditions. Fingers crossed for next month 🤞 #Hamr #HamRadio

A bit breezy at the portable site for last night’s #144MHz #UKAC. Conditions seemed about average. Hope to be out for the #50MHz on Thursday next week. Fingers crossed for some SpE 🤞 #Hamr #HamRadio

Some nice tropo in last night’s #432MHz #UKAC. Made for some easy contacts into ON/PA/F. On the flip side I really struggled to the south west. Didn’t even hear anyone in IO81 or 82. Still, it’s the most contacts (45) I’ve made in a 70cm contest for years 🙂 #hamr #hamradio
QSO Map for the 432 MHz RSGB UK activity contest. White car parked on grass verge next to single track road. With an 18 element 432 MHz beam on a 5 metre mast on the far side.

Conditions were pretty good for last night's #144MHz #UKAC. Managed 40 QSOs, in 17 Squares. Best I've done in a while. Fingers crossed for similar next month. #hamr #hamradio

Conditions not great for last night’s #144MHz #UKAC, but a fun evening nonetheless. A bit breezy at the portable site. Dry and fairly mild though. #VHF #hamr #hamradio

The next event in the popular 145 Alive series is on Sunday 26 January between 12pm to 3pm.

There will be nets operating in most Maidenhead Squares across England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. To take part in the event all you need to do is call in and make contact with others.

The first #144MHz #UKAC of the year last night. Was fairly hard going. Lost a few in the QSB. It was a nice clear evening at the portable site. Quite cold of course, especially by the time it came to packing up. #VHF #hamr #hamradio

First #SOTA I've done in a few years. A very easy 1 point hill. Bishop Wilton Wold - G/TW-004. 9 QSOs, all on 2m. A lovely clear day. #hamr #hamradio

An enjoyable Tuesday evening out portable for the #144MHz #UKAC. It was cold, but the rain stayed away. Band conditions seemed about average.
