[UK-CONTEST] G4FNL RSGB 80m CC CW score

[Alex GM3ZBE]

Hi all,
It wasn't just me then :0)
I found conditions very difficult, couldn't establish a run despite trying 
half a dozen times on apparently clear frequencies.  Had to S&P 95% of the 
time and got beaten to the punch about 2 times out of 3!  Yet I am told my 
signal was strong down south, also heard at least one other GM station doing 
well -- all rather weird!
My score has dropped dramatically since the change to BST, it hasn't done me 
any favours up here.

Alex
