Managed to work seven new DXCCS in November taking me up to 171. Burkina Faso, Cocos-Keeling Island, Venezuela, Guatemala, Monaco, The Gambia and the Galapagos Islands. Not many QSLs received this month but the one from Iraq was quite nice.

Couple of hours at the Snack Shack car park in Caerphilly. Good to get the Greenland DX-Pedition and also the 3G7X DX-Pedition to Chiloe Island in Chile as well as a tasty quarter pounder with cheese and coffee.
