🔔#Earthquake (#sismo) M3.6 strikes 25 km NW of #Chota (#Peru) 6 min ago. More info: https://m.emsc.eu/?id=1803312

Update on yesterday’s #CHOTA event which was a success despite some interesting propagation challenges. The club G5RV antenna went up without drama and operating as GB6SBC on 40m we worked 14 of the 40 or so UK CHOTA stations, plus around 40 or so others.

Conditions were poor at the start but improved aoroud 12:00 UTC until arounnd 15:00 UTC when everything closed. Signals rapidly disappeared leaving nothing
but noise, all due the recent solar activity. Still it was good fun. #AmateurRadio

Hope everyone has a great day, we're just setting up for Churches on the Air here in Shepton Mallet. Liste out for us on 40M. Aiming to be going live some time around 09:30 UTC. We're using the Special Event call sign of GB6SBC. #CHOTA #HamRadio #Somerset
