RSGB AFS SSB

Following the fun of the CW leg of the contest a few members had a go at the SSB leg of this popular contest. I had a new member with me who was completely new to contesting and between us, Damien and I managed a creditable 161 contacts. Conditions were fairly good and we managed a run frequency for a while. Conditions finally petered out around 17:30 and we only had a couple of contacts in the last half hour.
Great fun though and a good way of getting in the mood for the upcoming contest season :)
