Another fun evening! As summer approaches we are seeing the seasonal changes in this contest, this time static was beginning to show its head though not too severe. Plenty of stations, but also plenty of quiet spotsto call on and a few regulars were missing.
Just extended my longwire and I think it is working better than the old 60ft.

This contest is an ideal way to test different
antennae. Tried a new one this time but very
disappointed by S7 noise in 500Hz B/W on rx
and I didn't seem to get out very well. Seems to be
wideband noise on 80m rather than timebase QRM

G3ZRJ
Many fewer stations tonight no unusual prop condx
to speak of
Was worried about my QSO rate until quite late on when
worked some "Big Guns" with similar totals

G4BUO
Activity seemed a little lower, and after a good start I couldn't
quite make it to the 100 QSO mark

G4DDX
VERY QRN VERY ENJOYABLE AS USUAL

G4EOF
Had to take two hours annual leave for this one now
got to return to work till 3am....do i get a
certificate for dedication?
excellent again just needed a few more stations on
to practice the pileup for Field Day!

G4FKA
First CW entry in these sessions.
IC-706 Mk IIG and funny shaped short doublet at 20 feet.
Quite a challenge for the ears and brain with no narrow filter!

G4FPH
Static bad throughout event

GW4ALG
Great fun. I'm very pleased with the performance of CT for DOS,
and I'm getting better at handling pile-ups after CQ calls.
Rig: Homemade transceiver

Major equipment problems at start of contest lost me the first hour.
But use of the second radio pulled me through. It was fun being
popular in the last 30 mins though!

Lots of activity this time. Nice to see European

hour so finshed using paper log and hand key. Contigency
planning worked!! Roll on the next one.

the right length.

Where was everyone? The band was in good shape, but there seemed to be far fewer opes than in past months.

GW0ETF
First attempt. Came across it by 'accident' and jumped
in for a taster.- very enjoyable and seems a good
format.

GW3KDB
FT1000MP. Dipole at 45 ft. 100 watts.
Unusual to work 3 GU stations. Band very noisy, I guess it's
just summer conditions.
