Gary, LF,

Thanks for the nice capture. I thought I'd put a signal on the band for
a while as it looked quiet and I had some chores to do that meant I
couldn't devote time to QSOs. In these circumstances I figure a singal
is at least useful to someone, although of course it spoils my own
grabber!

I see I'm making it to the Birmingham grabber too.

I might come out of beacon mode in a while and look for some QSOs.

Worked G3DXZ at 0840 UTC and GI4DPE at 1200 UTC - broad daylight DX! I
also heard G3UNT calling CQ and despite repeatedly answering him he
failed to hear me, again!

Things are looking up though, as autumn gets going. The night-time QRN
still a problem though.

Regards,
