Comments:
The enhanced tropo to the west on Sunday night on 2M made this all worthwhile.
We also had two super long distance Qs on 222 and 432 during the opening. Or Q
totals were down by a full 20% which really killed the score. Where was
everyone?
Now to figure out what to do about the totally sub-par Elecraft XV222 and XV432
transverters. The K3 in the back seat of the rover on 6/222/432 is really
hobbled by these units. 6M is great, but the rest, yuck. The IC-746 running 2M
up front is totally fantastic! If only Icom would add 222 to the IC-9100, or
elecraft would build a radio with all this in the box.
73,
Mark K2QO and Ricardo K2ZR
