Didn't hear you Ray!  In fact I didn't hear much at all - now I
remember why I gave up VHF contesting from up here.  In really good
conditions from a good site (like I had in the early 80s) you can do
really well but from a moderate site in moderate condx with moderate
gear its just plain boring!  Well I made 12 qsos....   EI/P in IO62 was
a new square on 6, a couple each in IO91 and IO92 prove its possible but
mostly I could _just_ hear quite a few signals but not enough to work
out who they were - _almost_ makes me think I should get a bigger
aerial....

Mind you Steve gw0gei was his predictable S9, and of course gd0emg...

Still, its nice when people say to you "ooohh first GM, thanks for the
3 multipliers" -
