I always think it's nice to let repeater keepers know if you hear their repeater well out of the area that would normally be expected.
Hence the e-mail I sent to the repeater keeper of GB3EE in Chesterfield this evening:
Hi,
I'm sure you had lots of reports of reception of the Chesterfield repeater during the recent tropo opening, nevertheless, I thought you'd be interested to know that the repeater was easily audible here in Oxfordshire this evening. I first heard it in the car park at Sainsburys in Didcot and listened to the activity as I was driving up the A34 towards home in Longworth, IO91GQ.
I was using an FT8900 and a Diamond triband 6m/2m/70cms antenna on the car - nothing high gain!
Hope that's of interest.
73, Tim G4VXE
