In principle, a great idea. But some of us (am I the only one?) have 
to do some work outside to alter the system to work on 73, and we 
could do with some daylight.

Anyway, I will do my best to be there on whatever day is agreed.

I am off the air at the moment which was why I was unable to be on 
73 on Tuesday morning. Changed system to work on 160m (UHF!) 
for the CQ WW contest. This was great fun - worked ZX0A with just 
100W - and showed just how much my LF activities had led me to 
improve the performance of the antenna at 1.8MHz. But when I 
reinstalled everything to LF last Monday evening I couldn't get any 
current up the antenna. Must be doing something silly but I am now 
waiting for some daylight time to find out what it is. Expect to be 
back on the air at the weekend.
