[UK-CONTEST] ARRL DX CW XT2WP (G4BWP) SOSB/15 HP

[Fred Handscombe]

Hi All

I cheated and went to XT for the contest!  Single band was the easiest to set
up, and I am glad I chose 15m as it was in very good shape, large pileups for
the first 24hours but a lot slower on Sunday

I used a TS930 and an old Alpha 76 with a 3ele F12 yagi fixed on a guyed
ladder on the hotel roof, 4 floors up.  Logging with TR.

I have to say I had a great time in the sunshine in Ouagadougou, and I am
very grateful to G3SXW for showing up on Friday and acting as my butler for
the weekend!
