Driving down from Tyneside to North Yorkshire in the early evening yesterday I heard no less than five simplex 2m frequencies in use, not heard the band so active for a long time. One curiosity was the mention of an M7 callsign who was out of receiving range for me. Have Ofcom now started to issue M7 callsigns? First I've heard of it, if so.
