Some people seemed to have good conditions, but it wasn't the case down 
here in leafy Berkshire. For the first hour there was virtually no 
inter-G propagation with all stations other than locals and GM barely 
audible above the noise. So it seemed to be a 'work all GM' contest. 
But at 2100 the UK started to come through and were the usual 599 at 
the end. The last 15 minutes were the busiest for me!

A mere 38 QSOs at G3YMC with my 5W. And I never even worked GW...
