RSGB IOTA 2011

Asked by a few will I be entering? Yes is simple answer. I expect will be QRV 20m and 40m,maybe 80m SSB and CW, running win-test to FT817 and 6BTV or G5RV and an SDR RX. I will have a new audio interface this year and hope to record BOTH sides of the QSO's (only managed the audio in last year!)

The new workshop is 99% there whilst the shack is a bit of a dump right now until I fix that up so I might operate from the workshop... feeder dependant of course.

I know contests are notfor everyone but hope tosee you in the contest.

Note that the 72 QRP marathon is also on so get on the airand work some qrp.

RSGB IOTA 2010

I entered last year. This was my entry.

I was hit by a few errors that reduced the final score to 43470 from 51009 claimed.

Odd was I came first in category last year, don't think I'll do so well this year :-)
RSGB IOTA 2011 contest is next w/e 30th and 31st July.
