Thanks QSO! Looks great dit dit

Operating portable from our holiday let in Cornwall. Used the G90 for the first time and had my first CW QSO outside of Morse Club at @FRARSG4RFR although it was with the club station. Need a better key and to sort out the guying kit for my SOTAbeams pole. Otherwise all good!

Here you can see the main dish parked with the smaller 'VK' dish mounted on the back.

After months of planning and putting up a dish specifically for the job the planets literally aligned this morning and we made two 10GHz moonbounce QSOs with Australia 🎉🌛📡 #GHzbands @theRSGB

[FlightRefuellingARS @FRARSG4RFR]

@HHolsink @uhf_satcom @theRSGB Congratulations on your first 3cm EME QSOs. Maybe CW or even SSB soon!

Progress on 10GHz EME project this week, 1.2m dish is up. AZ rotator clearly a weakness but better to be active than just sat planning the ultimate solution. 🙂Happy with 1st results, now to optimise.
I just need to find a WG16 switch to complete the setup.
Fun on the #GHz_Bands

[Gareth Ayre @G0MFR]

Current issue of @UKGHZ Scatterpoint mag contains a history of our moonbounce / EME setup at @FRARSG4RFR - available to read here https://t.co/TCzpZouWT0 #hamr #GHZBands

A great club with excellent permanent shacks that have just been updated. HF, VHF/UHF, QO-100 & 10GHz EME on site. Come along -we’re starting a Morse academy soon and there are other irons in the fire for events throughout the year.

[FlightRefuellingARS @FRARSG4RFR]

👍 come and join us!

Local radio clubs are an important part of the hobby — there reinvention and your support of them is crucial. #HamRadio

[FlightRefuellingARS @FRARSG4RFR]

Club Xmas quiz tonight, should be a good turn out! Also more planning for our @theRSGB #brickworks program for next year 📡📻🌍

[John GI7UGV @gi7ugv]

Thanks @FRARSG4RFR for first microwave EME contact. 3cm with 1.2m dish and 10w, well happy, didn’t honestly think my taped on /p setup would go! #ghzbands

[Kelvin Crocker💙💙💙 @yellowspanner]

AGM at @FRARSG4RFR tonight. Overall a positive year but we have more work today to keep the club on a stable footing. Looking forward to 2023 and the progress we hope to make as a club.
