Hi Steve, I am Paul the trucker. I actually heard Dave and the other stations whilst I was at Sandy A1 Southbound heading towards London. The 2016 was doing a fantastic job and it was a pleasure working all the stations that morning. My conditions in the truck were Icom 7000 running 30 watts with a fibreglass triple loaded antenna. All the best guys. 73 DE 337 Paul
