    Auch bei uns ist auf #2m oft tote Hose, insbesondere die Relais sind häufig stumm.
    Deswegen #amateurfunk zum "sterbenden Hobby" zu erklären, sehe ich nicht. Die Interessen haben sich verschoben - auf der Kurzwelle habe ich keine Probleme, QSOs zu fahren.

    Vielleicht brauchen wir auch mal wieder eine französische Firma, die meint, dass man das 2-Meter-Band dringend für blabla braucht. Dann jammern alle. "Noiiiiiinnnnnn!"
    Gefunkt wird dann aber trotzdem nicht. :ablobcool:

  3. A very successful open day. Our #QO100 station worked Brazil, France and South Wales. An interesting experience where stations in such different locations are all the same signal strength.
    Jake worked a few stations on the #23cm band, the furthest was in Gayton, Northamptonshire.
    Ian worked Spain and Poland on #6m and some locals on #4m with a dual band Yagi.
    North Wales Amateur Radio Group had fun on #2m and Wirral Peninsula amateur radio club were active on #HF.

    My experience is pretty boring, i think. I don't know how exotic my QSOs get, as when i was SUPER active, I didn't know how to tell how exotic a station was.

    Most all the #DX i have ever done was #MorseCode

    But i did hit the #MIR on #2m #VHF back in the day. that seemed pretty exotic.

  7. Additionally, before I had a play on 23cms, my good friend @DafyddJack activated the summit on #2m and #70cm using just a couple of older mono-band handhelds he picked up for a bargain price. Using just a whip antenna, he managed to work a station in Lockerbie in Scotland!

  9. Is the IC-905 an ideal SOTA radio? No. But you can absolutely do a #SOTA activation with one, and I'll do it again. Many times. This was the summit of Penycloddiau today (GW/NW-054). Wx snowy but not much wind, so it wasn't too bad. Thanks to my good friend @DafyddJack and 4-legged companion for the company #AmateurRadio #HamRadio #Portable #icom #2m #23cm #SSB #VHF #UHF

  17. Andy got on the air for the first time last night 📻

    Amateur radio is a deadly hobby, you learn loads, meet great people, and that first contact feels like magic.

    Big thanks to South Dublin Radio for hosting the 2m net and being so welcoming and encouraging.

  19. Made a very half-hearted attempt at the VHF contest. Made two contacts on 2m, one CW and the other SSB. I could hear others, but my 5 watts and rubber duck antenna weren't getting out well competing with the big guns.

    Doch. #2m habe ich immer mal versucht, während der #SOTA-Aktivierungen, die ich gelegentlich mache. Da ist seit einigen Jahren nur Stille, es sei denn, man verabredet zuvor etwas.

  28. Well that was an absolute blast. Played radio with @DafyddJack from some high ground in north east Wales this afternoon. Worked Germany (multiple times), The Netherlands and France on #2m #SSB, 30-50w TX power and a 3 element SOTAbeam.
    Before today neither of us had worked mainland Europe on 2m. #AmateurRadio #HamRadio #vhf #vhfdx #dx #tropo

  30. Which #2m #antenna for my SOTA backpack ?

    I'm looking for a lightweight and easily packable device for 144/145 MHz

    I would use it with a FT-290R-II and its 25W amp in FM/SSB in horizontal and vertical polarization.

    I've found these, but I need advices from field operators. How do you put them in the air (hanged to a tree ? Mast ?

  32. Super local group QSO this evening from a close summit.

    QSO Nord Ardèche every Thursday at 18:00 (CET) on 145.5375 MHz FM

    I used a good old #Yaesu FT-290Rii and its 25W amp with a basic homemade Ground Plane.

  33. I'm still here playing radio on the ARRL September #VHF Contest. #6m and #2m were hopping this morning (although no Sporadic-E was detected here). Now, I feel like everyone has probably worked everyone else, the bands have gone quiet, and everyone's taking a nap. #hamradio

  34. APRS DX map shows decent opening on #2m this morning but no one is on the air! #VHF
