Totally agree Chris the Activator is not King as was once thought, he needs as many chasers to give a contact as possible. We are a community in SOTA who needs to look after one and other with a score if its chasing or activating. Sorry I missed you that day. vk5cz ..
Best sota videos on youtube ! Hopefully the leg is doing much better, I made a super short video from my first Solo activation a couple weeks ago and uploaded it on my channel. It sucks but the view is great of the Eastern slopes of the rockies.
Too kind mate I have no idea what I'm doing. What do you think of the long form video? It's twice as long as what I normally cut together... Leg seems good man thank you!
@@RadioRunner I like the longer video, your commentary is great and getting to see the landscape and more of what you are trucking through is awesome and entertaining. We are in a heat wave right now record high temperatures I'm hoping this weekend I can go out and do another activation and get a bit better of a video put together.
Hi Chris, the YC guys are chasing us too, nice to see the interest in SOTA from Indonesia. I keep missing your activations but will catch up with you one day. I like your thoughts about giving the chasers a chance to work you and also agree re protecting the vegetation and not putting up yet another pile of rocks in random places. 73 Andrew VK1DA/VK2UH
With you on the cairn issue! Nearly followed a fake one myself last week in low cloud.... I need to activate the original Ben Lomond one day and show you. It's Scotlands most southerly Munro and closest to Glasgow, so it can get pretty busy.

Thank you mate! You're dead right, the weather was spectacular!
Awesome video as always! Spot on with your cairn rant. Been a pet peeve of mine for years.
Great video again, Chris. You are walking quite a fast pace. I like it!
I wasn't supposed to be "running" on this trip so I just "walked quickly" ;)
One of your best videos yet Chris. Now I’ve got a serious case of summit envy. 😎
Thank you John! I figured it was way too long!
@@RadioRunner Not this time, you had a story to tell and kept moving along with it. I think you did good.
Spot on in reference to the rock cairns. They are there for a reason. Safety. Not for "art".
Great video by the way !
Thank you mate! Good to hear I'm not the only one that thinks cairns are sometimes problematic! 😆
Ahhhh winter. Fun to think it's winter there while it's a scorching hellscape here.
I'd be complaining about it either way - it's what makes us human. ;)
Looks like tons of fun. Hoping to do a quadruple activation this Friday here in Virginia near my home.
Sounds amazing, I hope you pull in some sweet DX!

Wonderful :)
Please, put subtitles on videos so perhaps we can understand what you say. 73.
Hey that's weird normally there are automatically generated closed captions, wonder what happened! Sorry mate!
Automatic subtitles finally showed up! ;)
