Hi Hrle,

I was operating at G3NKC/P for the Field Day weekend - we had (again) very
poor field day weather in the UK.  Lots of rain, which meant lots of mud in
our field :-(    My car got stuck and had to be towed out.   Also I don't
recommend a 'field day' if you have hay fever allergies !    Hopefully some
photo's of that one soon.

Thanks to all WWYCers I saw in the log - we had about 1100 QSOs over the
weekend.   We get double points on 160m and 10m for the RSGB contest, but
10m was not great for us, and we had high static on the low bands so it
wasn't a great score for us.

Station was a FT1000, C31XR (nice!) and dipoles for 40 / 80 / 160.

Also had some computer problems (CT was sending the wrong serial numbers for
a while)

I've also been on for CQ WPX, the Baltic Contest, EU Sprint and a 144 MHz
contest in last few weeks so have not been completely inactive - but just on
the wrong band perhaps :-)   Looking forward to some more QSOs with 9A7P
soon.

This weekend we have the Portugal Contest, the TOEC Grid or even the ANARTS
RTTY contest to choose from - see you on air.

For info I'm up for a mixed mode single op entry for IARU.

PS I also worked HP1ER in the WPX test (now corrected of course Thomas!)
