Another bumper week with over 3000 reported contacts on many days. DX too numerous to
list but T32C doing the biz every day on ten metres, thanks guys.
W3LPL was top spotter except for Sunday when he got knock off his perch by HI8CSS. Guillermo, it seems works mostly BPSK and some RTTY but still had time to send in spots. Good man.
I also have to apologise to Arie for the typo, his call is 9W2VVH and not as shown last week.
He was also busy on air this week.

A most excellent shout with the 7J7, I had no idea there were so few.
From Muhammad Arman, 9W2CEH comes yet another 100 DXCC on 10m.

I'm licensed since Jun 2010 and start my DX'ing on 10m SSB on 12 November 2010. Complete my 100 DXCC on 10m SSB at 19 October 2011. Feeling good now.”

Sun: How quiet can a star with eight sunspot groups be?
Pretty quiet, it turns out. The sun has that many sunspots and more facing Earth, yet none of them is producing flares.
The doomed ROSAT X-ray space telescope continues to descend toward Earth. Multiple experts agree that re-entry should occur on Oct. 23rd, with most favoring the early hours of the day. With uncertainties exceeding 8 hours, however, it is still impossible to say exactly where ROSAT will disintegrate.[Spaceweather.com]
Stoke duly beat Fulham 2 – 0, could have been 4 – 0, but a win is a win.
Thursday we play Maccabi Tel Aviv at the Brit. I’ll be there.
