Conditions were quite poor with several stations struggling to hear each
other, we might have to consider an earlier start soon but we'll not
change just yet!

Discussions this week included DX worked in the Commonwealth Contest
this weekend, conditions had been particularly good between the UK and
Australia on 40m.
Doug seems to have suffered from a PA measurement, or metering, problem
with his K3 and was using his K2 this weekend.
Firmware releases were mentioned, I have been testing f/w 3.02 which
seems to be working well and holding SSB peaks to a reasonable level
driving a linear with 25 Watts and will hopefully soon appear as a
public release.
Peter is putting on an Elecraft stand at the Blackpool Rally and has
leaflets and a banner en-route from Elecraft.
Again microphones were discussed... A never ending topic.

Stations were:

M0CIC, Roy
G3UCA, Peter
M3WCK, Colin
M1KAZ, Andrew
GM0ELP, Doug
G0MJW, Mike
G4CGG, Richard

73 until next week
Dave, G4AON
K3/100, Acom 1000 linear, dipole antenna
