It was wet and windy and I had difficulty with the 17 ele Tonna on the Saturday and initially planned to abandon Sunday, but I’m made of sterner stuff. I put up a 6 ele . I was plagued by static rain and only made another 19 contacts .
The propagation favoured the East and South East, and stations down there had silly scores. GM4ZUK/P did well though.
