Comments:

Part time effort. Noise levels in the city are horrendous. Getting teh Magnetic
Loop helps a bit but working DX from here (VE4) is brutal.  I tried to give out
the MB mult to the worthy but actually missed VE4VT for my own MB mult. (Ugh)

I would have liked to be at VE6SV with those condx. Lots of familiar US
calls...which is becoming the norm nowadays. Most contests from VE4/VE6 have
turned into domestic affairs...whether it is CQ WW DX, ARRL SS, ARRL 160 and
probably the upcoming 10 m contest...for what little propagation we may have to
US and S. Am./Caribbean.  Only worked the ZF9 for DX.  For some reason I kept
getting disconnected from packet spotting. Annoying when you're running
assisted.  Could be RF problem in PC router.  

Surprised to hear so many people missing VE4.  I was there and calling CQ ... a
LOT.

See you next weekend.
