WIA VHF UHF Winter Field Day Contest 2021 Summary from VK7HH

here is a short video (almost 7minutes) produced by Hayden VK7HH from up
on top of Mt.Wellington next to Hobart, in Tasmania.

I was just up at Mt.Wellington a few months ago, the trap with going up
there is the weather can change so fast, we were in Hobart and it was
sunny, we drove up the top of Mt. Wellington, 30 minute drive and straight into cloud that just swept in and smothered the top of the mountain. Regardless, I still have it on my bucket list, to go back to VK7 (via the
ferry from Melbourne to Devonport) to do one of these VHF/UHF/SHF contests portable from VK7, as Tasmania has so many damned good mountain sites
(clear of trees and accessible by vehicle) to run VHF, UHF and above, as portable station.
