EUHFC is sure one of the better contests you can find today in EU.
Lot's of mults (I was rare one?! 95?! coz many asked me to change band),
and lot of qso's (avg.rate 63.75 q/h).
Thing I didnt like in this one is that I easly got on 100q's on any band
but everything after 100q's was really hard. Maybe more activity would be
better?!(many stations worked 5B) Lost many mults on 160:( so I was almost
beaten by S56A who had 700q's and up to almost 250 mults.
Weather again played big part in this contest. I had to go off the air when
my rate was showing 130 in 10mins rate window (S56A was last qso before
taking off). Luckly everything of storm happend in about 20 mins so
I could go on the air very soon after (lost about 30q's only). After
that there was QRN S7 noise on low bands and that means lower rates and
myself getting nerved out and being deaf (sounds like real fun).
My plans of makin' 800 q's were ruined but I've beaten all that
I wanted: S56A & HG3G. Too bad S51TA wasnt in my category also
so I could beat him to. Anyone else wants to play against me? :)
I've used TR soft first time in a serious operation and had
lot of problems (as I'm not getting used to it), so sorry if some
of you noticed 9A7P gone crazy this weekend. Will make it better
for next time!
Highlights:
- great run on 40m (dipole worked well on very crowded band)
- good score?!
- worked: YZ7EM, G0MTN, HG3G on few bands
Day after EUHFC I was QRV in AlpeAdria VHF Contest:
9A1P almost 300 q's and 100,000 pts (but really almost!).
Ops: 9A2RD, 9A5AEI, 9A6XX
Two full time contests in one weekend?! Not bad even for a school boy.
