[UK-CONTEST] ARRL 10 Mtr Contest.

[brian coyne]

Well the propagation gods did not wish to play in this part of the globe. All
scores from eu area received were pretty low. Unusually SA stns seemed to be
suffering too. African scores were not bad but some of the numbers from VK boys
were impressive, looks like they had a good time.

After Saturday I did feel that Sunday would be better and couldn't be worse,
wrong. Sunday was dreadful and most of the stn's I heard I had worked the day
previously. Missed quite a few mlts 'cos I couldn't get back to them, this
contest needed power to get through!. 

All of my 35 mlts were dxcc countries, no contacts with NA, best I could manage
was a partial from K1LZ, the only other stn hrd from there was N200FI. Very
disappointing cndx to the east with practically only vk's coming through
although I was calling KH2L fora long period without managing to get into his
reciever, not even a ?

Had enough by mid morning and wrapped it up, there are better things to do than
watching paint dry.
