It looks like I will miss you this time around, times not co-incident..
My plan is to operate Saturday afternoon on 6m, 2m and 70cm coupled with a 'maybe' for the higher bands. I am trying to sort out an alternative microwave-IF radio but not sure if it will be resolved by the time Saturday rolls around. The original one used as an IF has its legs turned upwards and at this point in time is likely to be irretrievable - too old to get correct parts to solve the issues. (Not a very high priority job but I will spend some more time on it eventually as it would be more convenient to use).
There has been some good propagation on 6M around VK and to ZL this last week or so, plus a few bits on 2M too, so could be an interesting event. It will be interesting to see which callsigns end up operating in this FD !
Contacts in this FD also count to the Ross Hull Contest, 1st Jan to 31st Jan, rules on the WIA web site under Contests.
