[UK-CONTEST] Feb 144 UKAC

[Colin Wilson]

Hi all

I listened around for beacons  before the start time on Tuesday and heard 
the following very clear at 1930z

GB3VHF 529 QSB
GB3ANG 519 QSB
GB3NGI 529 QSB
SSS and MCB could not be heard

My QTH is Dronfield just south of Sheffield in Derbyshire I was running a 
13el yagi at 35ft and I am 680FT ASL.

There was a lot of English activity during the contest but I believe there 
were a few GM's although I only managed a couple, I did not hear anything of 
the French stations or any PA's.
GI, G and GM was the best I could muster with my 50watts but my best DX was 
Glasgow. It was fun and thats what matters!
