After a long hard day repairing antennas and cranking towers into the 
mist, managed to get an inverted vee dipole up about 80 ft in just in 
time for this event.  Good activity in EU and nice conditions to the US 
though low activity.  First outing for the Elecraft K3 in a CW contest 
and I am pleased with it's performance, though still a lot to learn 
about how to drive it for best results.

UK propagation was subject to deep fading at times with some stations 
being particularly difficult to pull through.

Ended up with 239 Q's, 29 DXCC and 55 codes for 1137 points.

Thanks for all the QSO's Roll on CQWW!
