[UK-CONTEST] GB7HQ

[Tony Bettley]

Hi all,

            Caught things right 'cos except for 10m SSB worked all the other
slots in the last 3 hrs on Sunday morning.  Strangely a couple of the cw
stations were much more difficult than the SSB stations, namely 10m  and
20m.

The 10m cw was a right esp job. When beamed in their direction I had 59+ QRN
and the only direction I could even get a whisper was by having the beam
totally the wrong way, hence working them off the back of the beam. Whether
that was because the QRN was reduced or some form of scatter I'm not sure
but there were some very loud but very short "pings".

Good fun though and well done to all the GB7HQ ops (and those who helped set
up).
