Comments:
G3TXF did 15m Single-Band (single op, no packet) in CQWW SSB: Conditions were
much better than we had been lead to believe they would be, prior to the
contest. With the SFI above 200 and K hovering between a 1 and 2, things turned
out pretty well.
The last QSO (CE4B) was at 2141z on the Saturday and the last QSO on Sunday
(LU1FF) was at 2056z, which is good going for 15m in late October!
Unfortunately I seemed to have missed several 'easy' zones. Seven zones were
missed altogether: 1, 19, 22, 23, 26. 29 and 39. Never heard a KL7 in z1,
although two KH6's were worked on z31.
The openings to JA were much better on the Long Path than they were on Short
Path. In fact barely any JA's were worked SP at all.
A 4-el 15m yagi [80ft] was put up 'field-day style' for the event. All CQing was
done manually (no DVK here!). Funniest DVK experience was hearing the station
where the DVK voice was a bloke but the op appeared to be a YL!
Station : FT-1000MP (with a brand new Heil headset - great stuff!), Alpha 89 and
CT 9.90.
