Hello Rik, and Chris

I heard your QSO with Chris G3XIZ, you were much the stronger of the
two.

I saw some QRSS from you also, after Chris spent a while using RTTY.

My grabber system isn't as sensitive as normal, with the ATU removed and
a 9:1 transformer at the feed point instead. With the antenna tuned you
would have better signals at lower power, I'm sure.

I'm not sure how much time I'll get to operate over the weekend either,
but I'll try to be around at times.

Cheers,

John
