Comments:

My first entry in ARRL 10m and certainly not my last. Last minute
difficulties reduced the entry to CW only as I lost my voice just before
the weekend due to a flu.

Band noise was low on Saturday but high on Sunday which made it slow
going. Apologies for all the requests for repeats!

I was hoping for high JA support for QSO runs but that didn't seem so
from here.

Best UK signals were from M7M, GM4YXI, G3ORY and M5ZAP. I tried to pull
a number of weaker UK stations through but the "..--.." brigade and
impatient stations made it sadly impossible.
