[UK-CONTEST] AFS SSB G3SJJ Lichfield ARS

[G3SJJ]

156-93-47-13 =  313 so my first two hours compare well. I thought 3739.7 
would be ok but the third hour saw the usual deliberate jamming by 
SSTVers including recording my CQs and playing them back. I turned this 
into a positive and went S&P whilst keeping an eye on my kind friends. 
Came back when someone answered!! It worked for several QSOs and also 
gave me sufficient time for a comfort break! OK I might have lost maybe 
10 QS but I can't use that as an excuse for the last hour, proapagation 
had gone for UK and there was just a handful of other EU stations. I may 
have hauled a few in on the 66ft vertical but it is currently resonant 
on 4500 with the top section having broken again!  Widest signals were 
G3ZAY and GD0EMG. I thought there was a lot of M3/0 and 2E activity 
around but missed some of the established participants

N1MM worked well and I am getting used to Enter Sends Message, except 
when I decide to speak the F3 + Log message, ie Thanks G3SJJ and end up 
QRMing myself. ESM is good if you only use the canned messages both on 
CW and SSB!

FT1kMP, Acom 1000 amp, dipole at 55ft ends at 40ft. No reflector.
