One of my two 80m QSOs was with GW4BLE :-)


My aim was to make 500 QSOs and I managed that easily, just topping up with some multipliers once I reached the goal.  My OCFD didn't perform very well, hence the reduced number of QSOs on 80m and 40m but the MA5B I put up last weekend on a G4ZTR Alimast performed admirably with 91 unique DXCCs in the log.


All QSOs except about five were from S&P.


I'll be putting an entry in to the single op, low power, assisted, all section.

Comments:
 
Target was to beat GW4OFQ's 80m GW record set back in 1991.
 
Big problem here with intermittent 'power line adaptor type' QRM, see:

Using the WiMo 'QRM Eliminator' from WiMo Antennen und Elektronik GmbH
 helped to alleviate this to some extent, and OFCOM (UK communications
 authority) are investigating the problem.
