Bicycle portable in Blackpool
David G4AKC has been on his bike and working some excellent DX (like VK/ZL) on SSB and CW on 20m from his bike parked up next to the seaside in Blackpool. He uses and Alinco DX-70 on battery power with a home made top loaded 3.5m long vertical against a tuned frame, and operating "over the sea water". He says several QSOs were possible at the 1W level.
