[UK-CONTEST] CQWW 160m CW

[G3SVL]

Got caught out this year with this being the 'last' weekend in January - so 
it clashed with XYL's birthday and a family get-together at our daughter's 
100+ miles away (must e-mail CQ organisers with all the family birthday 
dates!!)

Managed a 2 - hour session on Saturday sunrise and another 3 hours on Sun 
eve. Condx seemed reasonable and I elected to go S & P, unassisted, LP. 
Wasted a lot of that trying to bag FM5, JY9 and A45 - all missed, my long 
wire and 100W just couldn't break the pile ups. Managed VP5 and as far in 
as ND and IL in W-land.

Could have increased my QSO's by CQing at the end as Nigel 'TXF did - but I 
really wanted JY9 and A45 for new ones :-(

QSO's 128:   DX mults 35:   NA Mults 6:    Claimed 28,413.
