So my first QSO on my freshly built QMX. SSB, around 4W into a 1/4 wave on 17m. II3GONG who gave me a true 5/6-7 and we had a lovely conversation :) FT3 for size comparison

I missed a fascinating gravestone when going round the abbey. You can see it when I am talking about the bagpipe playing pig. I would love to know its history. One for November!

Yes. I wish I had had more time there. We are back in November but I don’t know how much will be open then

Did you have static protection at the rig end of the aerial? When I have looked at this in the past, I have always seen people using a bleed resistor to ground

Thankyou :). For cinematic shots I always use the mini 4 pro. I use the Neo I use for follow shots as it is much safer and autonomous. I am getting better with the M4P bit by bit and I pretty much always fly with a CPL filter on now. I need to start using some ND filters at some point.
