[UK-CONTEST] AFS-SSB ... 3As... G3TXF, G3WVG

[Ray James]

Peter,
I recommend a empty bottle of "Paul Masson" Californian wine is kept to hand (excuse pun) in your basement shack. The shape is very similar to objects used in male hospital wards and I gather is also favourite of lorry drivers. I put this to the test whilst sleeping in a "one-man" tent at Chesterfield when I came down to attend the Microwave Round Table you so efficiently organised at Sheffield. Though one was required to be a bit double-jointed in a tent, I'm positive shack utilisation would be at your convenience!
