Today my friend Stephen 2E0OWI and I visited Gilkicker Point on the south coast over looking Solent to activate GFF-0289. Today was my fifth activation of the required six towards the Brass Monkey award.
Kicking off on 20m around 8:25 I had 76 in the log 50 minutes later with a bonus park to park contact on 40m after having a little tune around.
The weather was the warmest we have experienced since starting the Brass Monkey back in December.
Warm sun on your face, sitting on the beach looking out to sea, what more could you want on a Sunday morning.

The picture below shows the locations of the stations that I worked today.

At the end of the 50 minutes I was glad to take a break and have a cup of tea 🙂
