"A late afternoon trip after the conclusion of the GippsTech Conference at Churchill. I had Wayne VK3WAM and Andrew VK1DA on board as passengers.. Drove to Seaton and around onto Springs Road, then north to Williamson Spur Road, then west to the junction with Army North Track, by which time it was raining. I parked the car and Wayne jumped out. I yelled to him to wait and handed him an umbrella. He climbed up the hill with a handheld radio and soon had 4 contacts in the log for VK3/VT-034. Wayne came down and I walked up and made my 4 contacts, then Andrew came up the hill, bringing back the umbrella and the radio. We then jumped in the car and drove back to Churchill." — peterfreeman • Jul 14, 2013
