[UK-CONTEST] ROPOCO2 - G3BJ

[Jim G3RTE]

It has been many years since I entered this contest.  Wonder why I have 
given it a miss for so long.  As Don said it was pretty slow going and 54 
qsos in the log. Some pretty strange codes going around.

Great shame we still don't hear these keen young contest operators which are 
supposed to exist. Maybe they can't handle the complexity of the post code 
or are only interested in the big contests when they can operate from 
locations with big aerial systems and high run rates. This also applies to 
the 80m CC and AFS.

73 Jim G6AY (aka G3RTE)
