London Calling.

[Andy Richards]

Conditions were not that good over the Christmas Weekend with lots of rapid fading and long deep "Fade Outs".
Some stations even faded in with me just as they were closing down with the earlier part of their broadcast inaudible!
At least Christmas Day was the best.
Plenty of stations on over the weekend,plus lots of,what were obviously relays.The relays are good too,Christmas is all
about giving after all!
Too many stations heard to comment on individual ones.So,I'll just say well done to all of you!It was a great turn out!

Best wishes for The New Year to all the ops and listeners reading this and let's look forward to improving conditions
in 2012.
