[UK-CONTEST] G3BJ - Stew Perry Contest

[Steve Rawlings]

Hi Don,

No clicks from G3BJ were noticed in Chepstow - and your signals were 
very strong for much of the time.   But it is quite likely that your 
signals were even stronger at ON4UN.

49 QSOs here, running the K2 at a bit under 5 watts.   Antenna was a 
sort of a windom: 102 ft overall, grounded at one end.  (And I received 
no reports of key clicks - HI.)


Regards to all,
Steve GW4ALG
