Comments:
After a smaller scale expedition to Jersey last year, the Bristol Contest Group
decided to use a full field-day line up this year. Two 80ft mobile towers
were hauled across on the ferry, plus a good selection of antennas and
generators.
All the equipment worked faultlessly through the contest, mainly down to
a lot of planning and preparation. A change of software this year also
helped.
An excellent site really made a difference. The antennas caused a minor
stir on the island and were even mentioned on Radio Jersey.
Propagation was not good on 10m, except for a lucky E's opening to the UK
and Ireland on Saturday evening. 20m was particularly good for us with
about 170 mults on that band alone and some propagation over the pole to Japan
and Oceania.
Weather was sunny and warm, a change from some recent IOTA expeditions.
Overall it was one of the most enjoyable IOTA expeditions Bristol CG have done.
