Yep all part of the fun.
Come on, just think at any other time you'd be hard pressed to work anyone
and as soon as a contest starts up you can really see how far you bit of
wet string can be heard.
It's a great time to go out HF mobile, and a great time to use some
kick ass power from the middle of the field without the neighbours moaning
about not being able to watch Rolf Harris giving lethal injections to cats
or Dirty Den having his away day ;-)
Give me a contest any time than let my brain infect with al that tv rubbish.

(who will take part in any contest rtty/cw/ssb - even AM if there was one)
Hmmm AM contest - now there's a thought - anyone interested ? ;-)
