70MHz Cumulative #1 February 2013 – M0PCB

Although only making 10 QSOs in total this was actually the best 70MHz score so far from M0PCB. Running an Elecraft K3 and a Spectrum transverter driving about 75W from a valve amplifier. Only a single QSO made in the second hour, two of the QSOs on CW, which was nice, especially as one of them wasn’t viable on SSB.

Best DX was G4TSW down in Devon but not far behind was GW0IRW/P in West Wales. Nothing heard from the East or further North than Birmingham. East isn’t a good direction from this QTH as can be seen from all my VHF QSO maps. Certainly planning on entering the whole cumulative series. Always keep threatening to get out /P but not yet got suitable equipment to achieve this.
