A dismal week lifted only partly by Saturday and Sunday.
Most sought after DX 5T5PA (Mauritania), T88UW (Palau), FY5KE (French Guiana) , 5K0K (San Andres), T30GC (Kiribati) and more, well just a couple more.
HRD support forum is now up and running again, I’m glad to say. I think a new version is due back from the beta testers so I’m looking out for that.

Sun: No spots, nearly three weeks now. But the Orionid meteor shower is peaking about now as specks of dust from Halley's Comet slam into Earth's atmosphere at 148,000 mph.
The best time to look for Orionids is during the hours before local sunrise when the constellation Orion is high in the sky. Other showers may produce more shooting stars, but the Orionids are second to none in beauty. They strike Earth's atmosphere traveling 66 km/s (148,000 mph). Only the Leonids of November are faster at 72 km/s. Orionids often leave glowing "trains" (incandescent bits of debris in the wake of the meteor) that last for minutes.
Stoke beat Fulham 2 – 0 for our first home win and a second win on the trot for the first time in a year. Millwall this Saturday, I’ll be there.
Of course the Rugby will be on too but before Stoke beat Millwall.
And there’s the F1 GP in Mexico, after Stoke beat Millwall.
