After the start of GB0FP Event this year on friday night, the team did really good with over 600 QSO in the log and over 150 DXCC worked, morning saw the bands very poor and due to lack of daytime operators this year and the night team needing sleep, we close the station down during the Day, but Saturday night has seen the Night team start off with great results and the HF band DX wise are buzzing, Trevor G1TDN, Kevin 2E0KVK, Marcin M0GLV / SP4BHD, G7LRR Andy having great fun tonight, lets see what the morning brings.
