Comments:
It was not sure up till 2 days before the contest if we will enter M/S or me
just doing an SOSB.
Therefor no goals were planned.
Almost everything has already been said and posted by others and yes
propagation was better on Saturday than Sunday (even in ON-land hi) as a result
of the CME.
But Sunday in the afternoon there was a marvelous opening on 10m till 17h58
UTC. Moved to 15m till 19h10 UTC to go futher to 20m till 22h17 UTC. The rest
of the time was spent on 40m.
Glad to have had Leon (ON5WL) - Christoph (OO7J) and Jim (OP5T) on board.
Heavy winds with gust reaching 53 mph and rain over this location did not stop
us from having big FUN.
