We've had some amazing conditions on the CB and HF bands this past few weeks but it's always a good idea to check out the high frequencies as well. 

This video features a brilliant cross-channel contact from Sussex in England to Normandy in France on PMR446, using a Floureon FC200 with just 500mw.

Distance = 119km/74 miles
