Folks, The group is barely three days old, and I've already had complaints about other members, plus a message calling for moderator involvement. Time for a quick moderator intervention. I'm not a

Listening around 160m and 80m on a winter’s evening to some G3s and 4s, I would suggest that if the old RAE produced operators of the standard encountered there, and that you consider that this is
