Tony's 10 Metre Band Report
28 November 2005

Well, we have battled to save the 2nd Test against Pakistan with 3 top batsmen getting ducks (zero for you non-cricketers) and Udal and Harmison (both bowlers and tail end batters) adding a vital 30 odd to save the day.

Stoke City, true to form, show stoic inconsistency and lose at home to Derby 1:2 and win away at Sheffield Wed 0:2. QPR at home next Saturday a needle match as they are my (nearly) son inlaw’s team.

Ten Metres is also on a similar regime. Much silencioso in the early part of the week and mad as 10 bears on Saturday and Sunday (but only for CW enthusiasts). This was because of the CQ WW CW contest.

Sunday to 12:00 SSB:
JE2SOY, K9US, PP5AR, PY2UN, RU6AX, RZ6AZZ, W6OI/9, YE1ZAT, YY1RDX,

I’ll not bother with the Sunday SSB map!!

Astounding results really, who said CW is dead. Possible high fliers in this contest are notably CX7TT, EA8ZS, HC8N, TZ5A, VK9AA.

Contests:
Nothing this coming week but the ARRL 10m looms the following weekend. Let’s hope we can get the level of participation that we’ve had on CW this weekend.

Sun:
Spot 824 is insignificant. 822 which looked really up for it at its central point never let go and just calmly chilled, without results.

Disaster week. Trying to remove a program from the computer (Registry b…s up) made the computer unworkable. Sin problemas. I have a weekly backup, so re-install Windows 2k and restore. Easier said than done. Re-installed Windows, then restore quotes “Back Up file not useable, delete and use another”. I wish! No, the only way was to reinstall all my Windows programs which of course I have all the original discs for along with registration codes (I wish!). So now I have a clean light weight registry but have lost all my links, favourites, and stuff!! Not only that the youngest daughter was bringing my pda from her flat and left it on the train. Not a problem I have back ups on my PC. I do but cannot use then unless I have a pda. A new one is ordered already!! My appointments and contacts, on my PC in Outlook, ah no just re-installed that and it's blank. Looks like I’m going nowhere this week.

24 hour drinking in some UK pubs now. ‘TUT and me will check out how it affects our local haunt, “The Picture Palace”, though they are only open 09:00 to 24:00 every night. Oddly enough ‘TUT was aiming to be their first customer at last Thursday, 09:00 for breakfast. Bacon, eggs, fried bread, and Carling lager. It has a certain ring to it!!
