[RTTY] BARTG AA5VU SOAB LP

[John GW4SKA]

At 0142 on Sunday morning I switched from 40 to check 80. 1st call got a 
very weak reply, up and down with QSB,  from an unfamiliar call. I watched 
the report go out on my screen '599 599 599' ...........

N8CL/2, you were a star. Got it first time!

The other highlight after a weekend of fighting with a schedule-wrecking 
cold/flu type bug was my very last contact in the 30 hours, FP/W6HGF, on 80 
metres. What a way to finish!

Cheers,

John GW4SKA
