Aidan M6TTTTo Terry, Chris, Chris, Barry, Lee, Chris, Aidan, Tim, James and Lynn (M6FAB!). Thanks for a great time. Let’s do this again soon! (Did I miss anyone?)

Picture shows Aidan, M6TTT running his first pile-up from the Hut. First class Aidan, you really got the swing of this on Sunday. Fabulous effort.

We put nearly 800 QSOs (contacts) in the log and there are so many highlights, I can’t begin to mention them all. My peronal highlight was working VK3FT at lunchtime today with a land-line quality copy on the 20 meter band. Keith spotted us which probably accounted for flurry of VK stations immediately afterwards from Australia. Thanks Keith.

We got spotted 25 times over the weekend which is certainly our personal record. Thanks to those stations that helped us maintain the pile up!

We had a great time and I’ve put some of the best pictures from Chris’s camera (and mine) here:

As usual, we used the MegaLoop (delta-loop) antenna, see this page for details:

Cheers all!

Callum.
