Be nice now to know the callsigns now. My only possible clue to the UK 
boys was someone who finished our QSO with FB, but that might be wishful 
thinking! Can't even remember the R3 call now, they are so anonymous. I 
certainly know it wasn't one of those sending 599 at 300 wpm!

Who got the short straw with the call ending in Q!!

Incredibly one of them told me "QSO b4" which was garbage. Can you 
imagine one of that calibre of op. refusing dupes in run mode?

otoh The copying ability was pretty good at 33wpm. I found  almost 
nobody gave me the GW3<silence> routine I often get from ops who just 
can't copy in their head at the speed they're sending . OK one or two 
messed up one letter or so, but that was on 15m where they were <S5 so 
at 33wpm the rapid cognition was excellent. I suppose we'd expect that 
of course but it was nice.

Do you think they're on the caviar and vodka by now?
