[UK-CONTEST] 144UKAC report from G4RRA

[Paul pasquet]

What can I say

Conditions down here were dreadful,signals were mostly weak and watery with severe QSB.

On the bright side I managed to work more GMs than I normally do with Andy OEG being the furthest into GM.

Activity from GW was amazingly low,normally I work quite a few from Wales but this time I actually worked more GMs!

It was equally poor beaming out to the east and I never did make it into the 30 line.

I normally rely on a few EIs to pop up,but I only worked a couple of them and they were both in the same loc (Thanks Jim and Trevor).

I still enjoy this contest when I am here at home,but I must say this one tested my hearing capability to the maximum.It could have been worse however, I could have been up in IO85 with Gordon and Phil putting antennas up in the snow,rather than sitting in my nice warm comfy shack!
