GU0AAA/p - NFD - HF CW Field Day - 2005
The Three As Contest Group [G0AAA] continued their round Great Britain tour for NFD by operating for a second time as GU0AAA/p from near Fort Doyle on Guernsey.

The previous operation from this same location was for NFD in June 2002.

The 1,152 QSOs made in June 2005 was a slight improvement over the 2002 total of 1,121 QSOs.

The 15-minute QSO target sheet designed to keep GU0AAA/p operators awake, alert and motivated. One Honda E10i generator purrs away the entire weekend. The standby is never even switched on.

Round table: Mike GU4EON, Ian G3WVG, Berni GU0IDA, Roger G3SXW, Phil GU0SUP, Dick GU4CHY. View from the GU0AAA/p Field-Day site to Fort Doyle and the north.
Ian G3WVG and Berni GU0IDA discuss field-day tactics at the Crabbie Jacks restaurant in Guernsey. Mike GU4EON prepares his camera ready for the GU3HFN/p Guernsey Club operation during NFD-05.
Ian G3WVG operates the Nr 1 position at the GU0AAA/p field site from inside a rental van. GU0AAA/p sticks to the contest program it knows best: CT. OK, CT can't score NFD, but it's robust, and we like it!
The only 'casualty' of this GU0AAA/p operation was the kettle which got accidentally run over by G3TXF/m. Roger G3SXW takes charge of operations out of his first floor window at the Captain Cook Hotel in St Peter Port.
