[UK-CONTEST] 80m Contests - GMDX Convention

[Jim Martin - MM0BQI]

I agree Alex, but I think good is an understatement!
How on earth does Rob manage to get these top flight speakers to attend year
after year, not to mention our esteemed English visitors? (who did heckle a
little at times!)
Next years convention is on the 21st of April,  for those interested in
DXing and contesting mark the date in your diary, you will not be
disappointed!
If travelling from south of Gretna, the GMDX group can arrange special
weekend visas to get you safely across the border for the weekend.
It was a fantastic day and we came away full of ideas on improving our
contesting efforts.

Jim,  MM0BQI
