Conditions were pretty good overnight…lot of activity with some QSB on EU
signals. I had a late Turkey feast and did not get on the air until 0300 UTC.
I heard G3ROO calling CQ, and then several EU stations calling HP3SS.
I worked G3YRO, but it required my amp and patience from Roger. Some QSB, but
we did exchange RST. Thanks, Roger. When do you sleep, OM? 😊
Then worked SM5EDX; John was true 579 but also with QSB.
I called OZ4MM/Stig, but he did not hear me. Also heard HA8RM/Peter,
F5IN/Mike, OK1CF/Karel, ON7PQ/Pat, all fairly strong but with significant QSB.
Then worked TF3SG/Gudmi for new one on TB. QSB took him from 589 down to 339.
Nice to hear so many stations on the air. I went offline at 0430 UTC. Looking
forward to the weekend contest!
