Re: ROPOCO 2.

Gross underachievement here, 42 QSOs, despite my best efforts.  Everyone was
right down in the noise, with slow but deadly QSB, and I had to abandon
several QSOs because people went from S2 to S0 in the space of a minute --
not typical for 80m here, and clearly not experienced by everyone.  Couldn't
really get any good runs going either.  Nothing obviously wrong with the
gear or antenna, so I can only put it down to a special D-layer cloud
hovering over South Wales!

Never mind, there's always next time.

73,

Ed, GW3SQX
