<< I can report that I heard G0MRF/P on 71.7kHz on Sunday morning 10th.
October between 0645 and 0730z. Hash from Rugby was horrendous and David's
signal was copyable with difficulty through this, at 379. Had the noise not
been there the signal would have been perfect copy. I was unable to detect
Peter G3LDO however during David's QSO with him. The distance of Beaumont
from my QTH measured directly off the map is 11.25 km, hardly likely to break
any records!

Hello Dave.
Congratulations! Even 11km is a relative success for that band.
I imagine that you used the loop? It could be that you had a better
reception "angle" into Rugby than to Windsor. Anyway Dave, at least it was
easier to identify than my last attempt from Whitton.
I think you must have heard Graham sending while I was adjusting spectrogram.
I spotted that he had sent /p and quickly corrected him. ( I actually
received a reply from the RIS this time )
Geri did very well. Apparently he didn't leave Windsor until 5 the next
morning. To make it home and make the QSO was remarkable.....We were a little
late as we were all watching the end of Dave's, LF presentation.
I hope you had a good time, I certainly enjoyed myself very much.....Except
buying all those FETs on Monday morning.
