Despite the storms earlier which may have put some people off, the weather brightened up just before the meeting and it turned out to be a beautiful summer evening. There was a decent turnout and although the bands were a bit dead, we spent most of the evening discussion the forthcoming open evening next month, and trying to get FT8 working with Alastair’s QMX transceiver – which baffled all of us. Sometimes the audio would burst into life but then after doing something like attempting to transmit, the audio would go dead again. We suspect firmware in the QMX.
