[UK-CONTEST] CQWWCW SOSB 40M GU4EON

[Mike Allisette]

Part time effort due to family commitments (Jnr op wanted to see Santa turn
on the Christmas lights!) and to many "cat naps".

Good fun never the less including getting a "tree mounted" ground plane up
on the Friday afternoon, with help from GU4YOX.
(thanks again Bob).

High points:

Working JA at 15.25 on the Saturday Afternoon.
Being called by JT1BV (double mult) 10mins before the end on Sunday Night!


Low points:

PC sending sloppy CW during first hour, re booted in MS-DOS - problem
solved.
F1 rather than A1 on the Sunday Night affected all sigs emanating from North
of St. Peter Port.
Listing to 5NN 33 to many times just to find out who it was.
Listening to Bob (on 160)working stateside and I could here diddly squat!

Still there's plenty of GU Single band records up for grabs.
