MU0PCB/GU9V – Guernsey 2015

In 2015 a smaller group assembled in Guernsey in memory of Louis 2U0FER.

This time we were located at the Scout Activity Centre campsite in a field of our own and we had access to mains power rather than relying on a generator or batteries.

Thanks to the Guernsey Amateur Radio Society we also had access to their pump-up mast and hex-beam antenna to go along with 80m and 40m dipoles. Outside of the contest we also had a WARC band dipole.

In the contest we used the Vulture Squadron Contest Group call GU9V.
