M7THA and myself went down to Skipwith common for a days radio. We set up in the normal location and started with the IC-7300 and the band hopper. Contacts were coming in great.
I got the breakfast on whilst M7THA ran the radio.
After a lot of contacts we decied to go and try a kite with the IC-705. We walked across the common to a clear area and set it up. And up it went in to the air!
The wind was not in our favour and it kept dropping but we got a few contacts on it whilst it was up.
Then M7THA had a play with the clansman PRC-320.
Some people came over to see what we were doing and offered to take a photo.
We had a great day out on the radio with a plenty of QSO’s
