Odd conditions for a July evening ..more EU propagation than I would have
imagined.  Quite a lot of QRN here so missed one or two weak callers. The
usual set-up here. FT1000MP (100W version) to a dipole in a tree up at about
70ft.  Operating split..70 mins. CQ and 20 mins. S+P. 

I kept hearing a weak G4A?? call through the noise, (by deduction it could
have been G4ARI I guess!)but never got him in the clear ..so apologies for
that!

Finished up with 128 Q's inc 2 dupes.  (I'm sure a lot of people hear WVG
but write down G3WGV .. fortunately for both of us John rarely takes part in
these events!).
Thanks to all for the fun.

73 Ian G3WVG.
