[UK-CONTEST] CQWW/SSB

[Darren G0TSM]

Noz C5DXC picked up my licence today, call is confirmed as C52T, that 
will save an afternoon fetching a piece of paper.

Yes using the cluster talk/messenger etc during a contest to make QSOs 
is a big no-no, all contesters know that anyway.
I've always been a 6m fan and those openings don't tend to last too 
long, so as I said I'd welcome a Talk message if anyone wants a QSY to 6 
during the contest.

Just been looking at the predictions for certain paths, C5 Longpath into 
W6 and JA looks interesting with a MUF of over 28MHz, it would be 
interesting to see if these paths actually exist or simply program 
glitches, we'll find out next week.
