19 Aug 2020 – 20th LRS Viral Net

The 20th LRS Viral Net on 19th August had a small but distinguished participation of 8:  Controller Peter GM4DTH, Briain GM8PKL, John GM8OTI, Alan GM3PSP, Pete GM4BYF, Brian GM4DIJ and Mike GM8KCS. Brian GM8BJF (Peebles) was AWOL! Discussion topics included the audio recordings of these nets by Peter GM4DTH which are being linked to the website reports. Briain GM8PKL reported progress in the hardware for his new antenna installation and mentioned a visit by Brian GM8BJF. Alan GM3PSP had visited Brian GM8BJF in Peebles recently and took the photo of him (below). Somehow the discussion got onto the subject of gambling and Las Vegas and various activities in that city. Pete GM4BYF reported that conditions on 23cm had been very poor for the weekly contest the night before, compared with very good the previous week. Brian GM4DIJ mentioned an unfortunate failure of his car’s clutch at Gatehouse of Fleet recently. News: not really mentioned, but preparations are proceeding for an informal weekend at Gatehouse for the RSGB 2m Trophy in which only single-operator entries will now be permitted.
