[UK-CONTEST] 50MHz Trophy

[Robin Thompson]

Apologies for the CW John - I was one of the two cw ops and we had a few
problems with getting the speed right at the start of the CW session.
All down to not knowing the radio or the software well enough -  oh , and
ageing operators (in my case) ..  It will be better next time though!
