Things were going ok here for 25 minutes and then propagation pulled a
switch. All UK signals simply disappeared and only non contest europeans
could be heard. It was as if the contest had just been called off and I
even wondered if I'd missed changing the clocks..:-)
I persisted and a few uk sigs did reappear after about 15 mins but all
except a GJ were weak. Even stations less than 10 miles away were barely
readable here.
Re jamming - just had a SM tut tutting about contests on Monday night
towards the end but he moved off when I mentioned only 10 minutes to go.....
