We had agreat time albeit no contacts due to noise. We tried out the new idea of using 8m fibreglass tree lopper poles for the linked dipole using a pulley system like a flagpole to raise and lower the dipole very quickly. Multiple amateurs are buying them. We had a good turn out despite several apologies (sick and dying). Our next event is aiming for Para Wirra so stay tuned.

My apologies for my non attendance guys. I was holed up in bed with crap exuding from all orifices.

The noise you encountered suprises me. There isn't much in the way solar, inverters, switch modes etc in the middle of the park. The only thing I can think of is the tram museum. Or some undersea cables from Torrens Island. We probably wont go back there again.

Anyway I hope everyone had a good time.

Mick, I think the noise was purely generated by the social gathering.......
