At chez G6CSY the QRP and trap vertical gave up GB7HQ QSOs on:

10m SSB
15m SSB
20m where were they? Sorry but nothing heard at all!
40m CW + SSB
80m CW + SSB

The hardest QSO was the 15m SSB contact, with GB7HQ about a tenth of an S-point above the noise floor, not expected given that G4BUO is just down the road and within spitting distance. 

The high spot was working 5H0HQ on 15m CW who replied to the first call. The other new slot was 6W1SE on 20m CW who had exceptional ears. I suspect that previous contest activity/QSOs [and good software] lead to some contest stations recognising partial calls. Am I the only 'CSY' on at weekends?

Thanks all for the GB7HQ efforts, hope no one got too wet!
