Thanks for the reminder - forgot it was this Sunday. 
 
Finally back on 6m after qth move in 2009 so will be interesting to see who I can hear/work with 100w to 5Y @ 5m agl at bottom of valley in Lampeter io72wc !  
 
Hope there is more activity on tomorrow than in recent weeks as all I have heard is the uk beacons and wsjt sigs higher up the band, with noone bothering to return my ssb and cw cq calls :-(   Any more of this quietness and I will have to qsy to 80m to lament the old days when people actually spoke to each other on 6m instead of getting their computors to talk to each other!
 
Hope to work a few in the contest tomorrow to give away io72 mult
