After Igor T95LIG had to cancel his planned operation I decide to work
15m instead 160m (sorry top-band ops). Good conditions produced best
ever score on this band. Score could be even better but 100W was not
enough to break pile-up or notice Pacific stations of my presence. List
of new multipliers heard but not worked includes : FK8GM (double
multiplier), 4F4IX (double
multiplier), VR97BG, XV7SW, HP1XPI (double multiplier), Z2/DF2XZ (the
only African I heard but not worked :-), NH2C, VS6WV, BP0A, WH0AAV,
ZD8Z, ER5AA...Also I did not worked any station from zone 3 and missed
HA for "easy" mult. Anyway I an very happy 104 countries and that is
more than I expected.
As usual Murphy stopped by. This time he did not stroke at electricity
(WPX CW 1995., WW CW 1995) or antenna (WW CW 1994., WW CW 1996.) but to
the computer. Saturday afternoon our 486/80 board went dead together
with Power Supply. I continued logging on paper and informed T94NE who
brought PSU from his junk box. After band closed I clean dust from our
old 286/16 motherboard and connected everything on table out of computer
case. This 286 never let us down and after retype QSO's from the paper I
was ready to go sleep. BTW I finished contest with the computer on
table. No single problem with
RF :-)
