Nice QSO 👍
And very good modulation.
I'm going to make some QSO on the PMR band today evening as support NovContest, which is running every 4th Wdnesday in Czech Republic.

Thank you. Good luck in the contest. Probably there are high points (maybe mountains) near your current QTH. That is good to have on 446 MHz (and on VHF/UHF in general). My current QTH is on the Northern Great Plain in Hungary. There are no mountains near my current QTH.

The best antenna is the hill ;) We have border mountains around the country, so you can make connection from one end to another ;)

I've just did some support to contestants, due to lack of time to make a trip to the higher QTH. But I did my best PMR DX. 141km from JN79FV to JO70LR.

I participated this contest last July and wrote about it. The post is in the Czech, but you can see te map of QSOs and contest logbook at the bottom.

PS: One point of interest ;) The actual Czech record DX on PMR is to Hungary made due the NovContest 11/2020. The QSO had 520 km, which is with 0.5W and finger sized antenna really great. But if there is good condition... The sound in the video is in Czech of course, but there are titles with QSO km and Hungary is from time 15:00
