Windmills on Air Event – A Great Weekend! 🌾

Met up with a few friends this weekend for the annual Windmills on Air event! I was located at the Upminster Windmill, which dates all the way back to 1803. 🏰

We only had a basic portable setup due to space limitations caused by restoration work at the windmill. But that didn’t stop us from making some great contacts! I got the chance to operate on 2M and made contact with a few of the other special event Windmills as well as a number of other stations.

The weather was perfect, and it was a great chance to catch up with friends while enjoying some radio fun in a beautiful setting.

Event Highlights

• Operating from a historic windmill dating back to 1803!
• Contacted multiple special event stations and local operators.
• Good weather made the day even better.

Looking forward to more events like this in the future. If anyone else participated in Windmills on Air, I’d love to hear about your experience and contacts!
