Way off the wavelength for this superb puzzle.

A stiff enough test for a Friday, if workaday.

A very interesting, if challenging, puzzle.

A roughly average time for me, but it felt harder while solving.

Solid, and quite difficult.

Too good and complicated for me.

Lovely surface readings and enough tricky wordplay to keep the cogs whirring.

A struggle from start to finish.

One of the easiest Friday crosswords I can remember.

I could find no foothold in this excellent puzzle; it was like solving 30 individual clues rather than a coherent whole.
