"Sounds good to me Peter, let's try to even though the sun is pretty close. 

I have just applied for an extension of my permit 
to operate with high power on 13cm and things are 
looking promising as far as I can tell. So from 
next month I should be able to return to 13cm for 
some EME again after >6 months without a high power license.
