Be careful with your dongle!:lol

Dongles are dear, why not tether your mobile instead? most have data

Oh Jessus, you are coming down towards me :surrender

I am in Suffolk and we usually go up to Norfolk and yes there is no mobile coverage in the main. We are going to Langham in Norfolk from the 9th Aug to 16th Aug. Where are you heading to? Might be able to meet... or at least speak through the repeater?

Paff · Jul 27, 2014

Looking at the 2m repeaters, where I will be in Langham (south of Blakeney) is between two repeaters :doh

GB3KY - Kings Lynn
GB3NB - Norwich

70cm rpts are a bit patchy...

Have to arrange a sked, when will you be at your site?

Paff · Jul 27, 2014

Looks like a good hour and a half drive to your holiday QTH from Langham.

Also Langham is on the fringe of GB3NB's coverage
