    QRP is so amazing - i love seeing this in real life with such low powers between australia and UK - seriously impressive. Cant wait to get out again and try this myself if I find someone to work with !

    As a recent convert to QRP..., having had a new 818 follow me home... I loved this video!
    Plus, I can also verify your terrific encounter... a couple of weeks ago on 20 metres, I gave Dave G4AKC a report of 5-4 for 1 watt and then an amazing 3-2 for 100 mW!
    Dave went lower again, but if not for a very noisy band that day with QRN I’m sure I would have been able to hear that as well.
    Plus, it deserves a reminder that both our experiences were long path propagation!
    Good too Peter that you highlighted the poor evaluation of solar conditions at the time of your contact.
    A superb video, Peter. Thanks for the recording, and sharing it with us all!
    Peter, VK3ACZ

    The amazing thing about radio is its so efficient when the mirrors are working well the light bounces around the world quite well.😊

    Excellent contact Peter between you and Dave. Great to test the propagation on the low power and interesting to see both sides of the QSO. Good recording. 73...M0DAD

    👍 Good one Peter. I could certainly still copy G4AKC/P on 250mW. Very impressive for SSB G-VK.

      Hi Dave, we're both in the same video! Funny to hear you in QSO with Peter..... you seem to have taken on the Australian accent, which is exactly what I do, but it doesn't come across on CW? 73 de M3KXZ
