Ray, at GU8D we used v10.57 and adjusted the template via TE to accept
5 characters. It all worked a dream as usual.
Amend the IOTA.DAT file in a text editor, if you add say 100 to each of the
alst IOTA references then re-run NA, it ought to work (?)
Condx were also poor in Europe and to make things worse on 15m we had
a high noise level on the TH6 which was positioned near the shack and a very
high SWR on the A4S about 130ft away. We ran on the 40m diamond loop
at times!
