Having read the comments from Steve G3VMW I would like to echo all 
the positive comments. I am not sure if it was Steve on the rig when 
I had my 10m CW QSO but after calling on and off over a space of an 
hour with my 5W QRP and getting nothing much more than the occasional 
di-di-da-da-di-dit I was very satisfied when I got a FB Dave back! 
The path from Brough to Bracknell is pretty marginal at all times 
unless there is some pretty short skip sporadic E, and it certainly 
was the case yesterday. To pull out my weak QRP is certainly a great 
feat and I can only praise the ops and their determination. Of course 
by that time they didn't have another CW slot to suggest I QSY to as 
that was number 6!

Let us stop the flack and get back to constructive comments.

ps Just seen comments from Chris G3SJJ that it was him on the key at 
the time. Thanks Chris.
