Comments:

This was great fun. Congratulations to all those who picked up my trailing e on
first attempt.

I used a K3 with a temporary full-wave delta loop in my suburban London rear
garden jungle. Loop apex was just 11m up and the triangle bottom only 4m above
ground but it worked fine.

Condx were OK but not brilliant. I wasted plenty of time calling a handful of
perfectly readable JAs and a couple of B stations but didn’t get as much as a
question-mark in return. 

This was a relaxed event with few annoyances. It was also my first attempt in
assisted. As expected the DX cluster is a pain and counter-productive for an LP
operation but CW skimmer was a seriously fun distraction that also was helpful
in the margin.
