Unfortunately contesting in the UK is very poorly supported
indeed. The reasons for this may be complex, but might
include a general lack of interest in participative sports
in general, and inability to erect competitive antennas. If
I tell you that there are 60 million of us living in an
area the size of the state of Texas, and that a significant
part of that is not even inhabitable, particularly in GW and
GM because of the mountains, you may begin to gain an
appreciation of the problem.
