My report was 229QSB, but my antenna was blowing about all over the place in the squally rain showers and Ray's receive system wasn't fully optimised for 73kHz, so the contact was fairly lengthy. Nevertheless, as well as swapping reports, Ray received my power info and confirmation that I would alert G3YXM to come up on frequency, so we managed more than the minimum QSO exchange. Dave then also worked Ray when we had signed. John G4GVC
