[UK-CONTEST] IARU G3YMC SOAB CW QRP

[G3SJJ]

Yes, it was an interesting challenge Dave, our 10m CW QSO. You get bits 
of characters and try and piece them together to make sense. The next 
step is to make a guess - anything weak with a YM in it is probably 
going to be G3YMC. So you try that and bingo! I put an all-group 
Announce just after to say that I had worked you via ESP mode!! Thanks 
for trying, much appreciated.  Chris G3SJJ
