I listened again last night Roger between 1920 and 2020z and not a 
trace of you on the waterfall. SM6BHZ and G7NKS were coming in as 
normal, though Gus's signal seemed well down on what it was the night 
before, mostly down about -10dB with the occasional peak to 0dB (Monday 
he was consistently +2 to +4dB). So maybe 'excellent conditions' to DL 
land but not so to Bracknell...
