What an awful week, well Thursday wasn’t that bad. But Monday to Wednesday was like someone had switched off all the radios. Despite it being SSB Field Day there were no /P stations at all at the weekend. Any way the best of the week were R6DIR (Russia), DU7JAY (Philippines) and EG1SDC (Spanish special for Asturias).
There were lots of SDC and SGC Spanish stations on. To help the Spanish commemorate the festivity of Asturias Day and its patron saint, Santina de Covadonga. Qatari amateurs will be active as A71SDC until September 13th. QSL via EA1AUM, direct, by the Bureau, LoTW or eQSL. Diplomas are available.
Patrick, ON4ARJ , sent me an empty report for Sunday but then worked SK4AO 55, SM5EPO 59, SE5N 57, OH6VV 59 on Thursday on SSB. He says “Nordic activity contest. Ended at 1900 UTC in SSB, then in FM” And he worked SA6BPD 59 on FM.
Jim, GM8LFB, worked OH4ZS 5/9, OH6MSZ 5/9, OH6RM 5/9, OH6DX 5/9, OH1LWZ 5/9, OH3HWU 5/9, OH3BCX 5/9, OH2KAD 5/9, OH4LA 5/9, OH8MGK 5/9, OH4YA 55/7 and heard: OH1TP 5/3 and OH3CK 5/5. His comments were “10m activity contest coincided with a nice sporadic E opening to OH. Very strong signals here in IO88LK. Rig here is ICOM 7300 100w into a 10m inverted V dipole.” Thanks for the report from north of the border Jim .

Sun: So far 19 days without spots.
England international soccer has really bottomed out. A last minute 1-0 victory over Iceland and a boring 0-0 draw against Denmark.
The 20-20 cricket (it’s not real cricket) against Australia is plodding on.
Stoke City start the new footy season behind closed doors at Millwall. What can you say. Stoke have decided to refund my season ticket money for the coming season but I can still keep my seat for the following season. I do hope I’ll get to use it!!
