[UK-CONTEST] Original QRP contest - a little chuckle

[G3SJJ]

I could never get used to having put callsigns the wrong way round, as 
in "This is XXXX putting it over to XXXX"   Beeep

Actually I still have the little Alinco DR112 that I used to use for DX 
Cluster, but never managed to work out all the buttons!

I kept it in case an aircraft from the local aerodrome crashed and we 
needed emergency comms in the village, but then I wouldn't know if I was 
on a repeater thingy or not. Like you say, all too much for me! It's 
available for sale if anyone wants it
