What type of antenna did you use Peter?

[vk3ye]

@flexairz Just an end-fed wire - 25m or so long with about 20m added when it got darker.

Hi Peter,

Another excellent video. It was great to have worked you in the 2011 JMFD. I was your next contact after Theo VK5FTDM (We were operating from the same portable station). Keep up the good work.

Ah nice contact with our club VK5LZ Peter. I was listening out for you. Turns out you spoke to Andy, VK5AKH.

Really good to chat to you on Saturday Peter - another great video from you! I even heard myself in there somewhere! :-) I couldn't hear your beacon at Indented head unfortunately - I'll try again from Portarlington next week if the beacon is turned on then! Glad you got your radio up and going again too! 73, Craig VK3VCM
