[UK-CONTEST] CQWW CW ... MZ5A Shetland

[Cooper, Stewart]

Good luck Ian. I'm in Hong Kong now and won't be back home until Thursday PM, so I don't know how this affect my contest. But all the best in Shetland. Are you running big power/what antennas?
I think you may have misunderstood my last e-mail to you asking about whether you'd tried Braewick. I was just curious to know if they'd stopped renting as you had gone for the lighhthouse? I had planned on Braewick for IOTA next year, so I hope theyre still doing it. Thought I might also try CQ WW SSB too, as doing it from home is such a struggle.

Hi Guys
 
  I'm off to Shetland in the morning, to get set up for a low key SOAB HP entry...no cluster.  It'll be simple antennas only, but the exposed cliff top location looks pretty good for the US and I should do  reasonable  business with the rare mult.
 
  See pics ...http://www.g3txf.com/dxtrip/MZ5A-06/MZ5A-06.html.
 
  Nigel G3TXF has already kindly delivered 100kg of hardware for me and taken some great recce photos.   I'll be taking another 75kg.  Much depends on lack of Aurora (it's 60' North) and much depends on the weather (strong gales forecast ).  Please keep an ear open for my puny signal and give me a call.
