[3830] BARTG Sprint 98 - RTTY - VE5CPU

[Bart Ritchie]

BARTG RTTY Sprint (1998)

First time for BARTG Sprint.  Conditions were not great, but certainly better
now that the sun spot cycle is moving forward.  Not much of a 10m opening,
but I did not get going until three hours into the test.  Managed to
be there for the shorter European opening on 15 and 20.  Balance of time spent
pointed south to work our American friends.  We certainly need more low band
activity and I need better low band antennas (not much hope from a city lot)!

Thanks to all, see you in the next one!
