[UK-CONTEST] AFS YESTERDAY

[QUENTIN COLLIER]

Operating G4ALE from the QTH of the late Harry G3SBV in AFS yesterday, I noticed an effect that I have observed before. This was the fact that, after the initial flurry at the start, QSOs seemed to come in waves......one could go for significant periods (in one case up to 5 minutes) with no takers, and then it would "fire up" again, followed later by the same cycle of events. I wonder if anybody else noticed this, and if so whether there are any views on whether this is simply fluctuations in conditions, or whether it reflects some kind of "swarm behaviour" in stations doing S&P?
