[UK-CONTEST] May 2m Contest - follow up

[Steve White]

I was interested to read Ray, GM4CXM's post on the subject of the 2m contest 
that took place this weekend. Splitting my 6-hour single op entry between 
Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning, I enjoyed the event despite never 
being overly busy. I also felt that postcode mults helped to promote 
inter-UK activity, although there were some East Coast portables who were 
relying more on working Continents than beaming towards the UK and working 
more mults.

I didn't go on FM to elicit local QSOs, because such people would be very 
unlikely to work anyone else in the contest and I would be concerned about 
having too many unique calls in my log. Maybe the Contest Committee could 
comment on whether they consider working locals on FM as within the spirit 
of the contest, if these people don't work anyone else.

QSOs: 98
Countries: 6
Postcode mults: 61
Claimed score: 1,516,545
Best DX: GM8OEG in IO86NM, 639km
