What a top night, or should I say the first hour! I had a excellent Q rate and then i knocked over the glass of water on my desk! Completely went out of sync. I then got my regular tuner - I seem to get him/her every time I get a run going no matter what band I am on!
Then my MixW programme decided that it was not going to play and the receive indicators would not follow the TX indicator so my S&Ping for the last 30Mins was out the window. But I ended up with a decent effort - even though I know I could have done a lot better.

And this new log robot is superb. Looking forward to this weekends CQWPX shenanigans where I hope I can get my programme working again. Going to leave it for now and try again tomorrow night.
Thanks to all that called in and I worked, and I am sorry to those I missed - especially when the idiot set up 10Hz away from me and had a signal as wide as the Thames Estuary! He just obliterated me and then had the cheek to say I had moved to his frequency - this was an hour in and I had been on 3594 from 19:00 having some banter with a few of you guys!
Ah well can't win them all and I guess there will always be the one who is just arrogant!
Enjoy and have fun from the Strumble Head DX and Contest Group.
