2m UK Activity Contest - July 1st
This evening, with a VERY strained voice, I took part in the 2m July 1st UKAC contest from home, working 10 stations in a little over an hour before I had to stop. I was running 5W from the FT817ND to a hand rotated 3 el beam. Best DX was 240km up to the North York Moors. I heard IO95 (Northumberland) and Wales and other squares, but my voice was too poor to carry on past 2036z. Had I been fitter, I'd probably have turned the beam south and worked more squares and stations. Contests are hard for me at present. My voice is so poor.
