This isn’t normal for November.
@bloor Was nearly 16c here. I wished i had planned to go portable.
A lovely spring day.

@MM0INH @bloor I was on call and didn't get a single call. 13 minutes to the end of the 'shift', and the sun will set soon.

I could have done with some QRP Portable calmness...

@M0KHR @bloor Ding-dong- - 4pm is calling.
I have a couple of cans of stout and some pomegranate Turkish delight. I am as sorted as i can be in the circumstance.
Do that or similar!

There are so many problems with my radios... The old C5800 won't even transmit at 1W now - even against a dummy load, simply goes into rapid reset cycle.

Reception isn't bad though.

@M0KHR thanks to M0BPQ I back on air. I think the last year finished off the wx sat rx, aluminium pole with bit of wire tacked to it vertical, and the 6/2/70 collinear. Radios thus far mostly behaving. Once it gets colder I think I'll have the KW201 RX on and negate the need for the heater!
