Eyes down for another day, looks like another mild one.Hope conditions are a bit better today, sstv wise. Pics not too good yesterday. As i type i can hear a feint sstv sig on 14.230, but not strong enough to fire up the program. Hopefully, there is no contest on 20 metres today as the guys taking part just don't seem to have any regard for the 'band plan' at all. Nothing worse than hearing ssb splatter all over the frequency every few seconds with some calling 'cq contest cq contest cq *sigh*. Worse than listeningto the song 'I got a song that'll get on your nerves, get on your nerves, get on your nerves' etc etc . Over an over.

trouble is, the serious contest guys always seem to be chucking out megawatts, so there's no escaping them *grrrrrrr*.

Oh well, quick look at the site, see what i can add/tidy up, then nip out for some supplies. Food that is. Usual antique films on tv again i see, so it's back to the radio/web page for the rest of the day i guess.
