Thanks to the organisers and to everyone for the Q's.
First 4 hours were pretty busy running around 150 an hour.
Condx on the open bands were good. 10 was dead as a doornail
and 15 was a struggle. 160 was ok into europe. Bread and butter
band was 20 as usual.
1200z start times do not suit me at all as I have already been
up for 9 hours which stretches a 24 hour contest into 33.
I much prefer the 0000z start times then I can get a good kip {sleep}
before kick off.
I was going to give my {Very Basic} SO2R set up a bit of a run on
20 and 15 but I never got around to it as I was too busy on the
run rig.
I have made some stubs to try to get rid of the harmonics but I
can't seem to get rid of them completely, is this the norm ? 

73 and hope to cu in the BARTG,  Steve.
