[UK-CONTEST] NFD Reminder

[Jonathan G0DVJ]

Just to point out that unlike previous years in recent times, and  
contrary to the information put out in the last GB2RS new broadcast  
and other RSGB publicity, the Harwich Amateur Radio Interest Group  
(HARIG) will not be active or entering HF NFD this year.   We would  
normally be active as G0RGH/P.

This is mainly due to a lack of personnel being available, and in  
particular, operators to join me that can handle CW in NFD.
We have also been flat out in May this year supporting the GB400AA  
activities which have taken many of the group's resources.
Hope to be back next year if we can justify the effort for the small  
numbers able to operate.

Good luck to all who are participating this year.
