[UK-CONTEST] CQ WW SSB 2006 - M4U

[Jonathan G0DVJ]

As usual we just had fun with this contest - began leisurely around  
12 noon Saturday and closed up at 3.30pm Sunday in a vain attempt to  
get our field based /P station down and put away before dark.  Nice  
to see 10m open so well on both days.

Highlight:   getting about half of our club's membership out to help/ 
visit/operate/support on the site.
Lowlight:   amplifier failure on the Sunday morning.

We don't have the best kit available which is especially a challenge  
when the bands are so crowded with strong close-in signals in an  
event such as CQWW but we had a fun time.   LF bands were  
disappointing for us compared to previous events.   Also too short of  
mults too across the board and disappointing OC/AS QSO totals.
