** Personal Skegness 'First'

Overnight was again very disappointing for meteor scatter. But I realised I had left the antenna to the south after lowering the mast yesterday in preparation for the first of the winter storms. There still wasn't a deal of meteor scatter even after I had swung the antenna round to the east.

Good DX!
