[UK-CONTEST] G4OBK Ropoco 1 report

[cq]

Ropoco 1 2nd April 2005 0700z-0900z

68 QSOs with one dupe making 67 QSOs (None UK stations don't count for point so my claim is for 660 points).

Rig: FT1000MP + Linear 400w.
Ant: 1/4 wave vertical over 5000 feet radials.

A steady contest with 66 UK stations worked and one PA station. The PA sent 001 and threw me and G3MA into confusion when I gave my next QSO G3MA 001 as my exchange! So I worked G3MA again a little later when I had a post code to give him. He was surprisingly then my last QSO and gave me back my own Postcode of YO188EE! (Also heard my own code corrupted to YO1ZZEE very near the end as well!).  

Wierdest postcode copied was 5S20QB - can anybody beat that? 

The last half hour was extremely quiet - only 5 QSOs that counted. I enjoy this contest - it's just long enough for a Sunday morning.
