Hi All

had a phone call from Neil at the IBR today....bloke saw a falcon on a Duck in my village (Near Loughborough)....it had Jesses on and its color was "Grey".

I naturally jumped in the car and got the lure out at the spot where it was seen. I got my receiver out and got a signal on 216 channel 6 tune 7-8 and got a strong signal for about 3 hours ...but nothing confirmed as seen..... signal whent dead an hour ago..... so waiting until dark to try again.

Any East midlanders with 216 ...can you get your receivers out and try and get a signal :)

Been out 'patrolling' Notts/Leics border, but not picked up a signal. Lets hope its back in its mews with a relieved owner.
