Only joking. Suffered like everyone else. Not quite the worst in my book;
that award goes to an early year data leg a couple of years ago where phase
distortion made every QSO almost impossible. However it wasn't pretty.

Band was open both to UK and EU right up to 19:59 but died here almost on
the second of 20:00. Every QSO was hard work but these conditions test our
credentials as contesters.
