Rather strange conditions, it seemed I had to do a lot more
S+P than usual, it wasn't sufficient to use the second RX.
After a bit of S+P I settled on a new run frequency but it
was hard getting any takers at that stage.

As usual, I built a 'gotaway' list, i.e. calls I heard while 
tuning but not yet worked. It's a good motivator,
usually you can cross most of them off by the end of
the contest but this time out of six calls I only managed
to get one. So I concluded there were quite a few more
Qs to be had, but quite how to do it, I don't know.

Anyway, final score is 2660. Slowish start, hourly
totals were 92, 74, 61, 39
