Hiya Guys

First the positives..

1)The weather was good.
2)Nothing broke
3)G3TXF remembered to bring the kettle.
4)We had lots of laughs.
5)The voice keyer worked, thus saving a lot of sore throats.


On the not so positive side
1) Poor levels of UK participation compared to EU.
2) Flat conditions with little propagation on 21/28.
2) Slow QSO rate .. our 100W to a simple doublet antenna didn't give us much
punch.
4) Our performance was improved compared with 2006 but worse than some of
our near competitors.  

We ended up with a little over 800 QSOs and around 100 mults.  So on balance
I guess the school report would read.."A good attempt but could do better" 

You can see us on G3TXFs website...
