Fortunately my local qrm was off at the time. I did not realise until I mentioned this to Steve GW4ALG today that Ron is in fact using Steve's 5W qrp rig. At 283km this is an excellent distance for qrp. Please pass this information to Ron if you speak to him before me. There is much that can be done on the band by us low power operators!! 73s Dave G3YMC IO91PJ Bracknell dsergeant@iee.org dsergeant@btinternet.com http://www.dsergeant.btinternet.co.uk
