A last minute arrangement meant that I gave the topband contest a go
yesterday evening, having not taken part for many years......
Not really sure how well I did - I was operating from a new location near
Brighton with a dipole at 60ft + an inverted L at 80ft + a beverage to the
NW - but I ended up with 182 QSO's, 51 zones and 23 countries.
Some dodgy sounding signals out there (specifically one from PA land), and
some tremendously strong European / Russian signals. I'm not too familiar
with 160m propagation - and I think I need to do some homework before the
next 160m contest.
BTW, did anyone else work an M0 that didn't know his area code? I presume
that this is not a legitimate QSO, without a code??
