* - Note that the shared antenna between 15m and 10m meant that it was not possible for the run and mult stations to use these bands simultaneously this year.
A write-up of our operation, with a number of photographs, is now available on the Granta Contest Group website (thanks to G4AXX).
A list of DX Spots people made for us is available. Thanks to everyone who spotted us - it really does help to increase rates!
