Morning all

G0VHF/P will be qrv for this one. During testing yesterday we find that our
semi-urban contest site is especially noisy when beaming to the north-west,
so please bear with us while we try to pull you out of the noise.

Good luck all .........

Condx will probably be rubbish....too early for Es and no sunspots F2, so 
work a few Gs with lots of QSB ;-)

I'm thinking about putting the 6m beam up for tomorrow's contest, it's a bit

early in the season for Es but we may be lucky and catch the odd bit.

With the "1pt per km rule", if you catch a bit of DX then it's going to 
massively increase your score. In 2007, I caughts some Es to Italy and a 
nice 1600km QSO, and back at the peak of the solar cycle I caughts some 
extended TEP into South Africa for a nice 9000km QSO :-)

Any prophecies on what 6m conditions are going to be like on Sunday morning?
