Comments:
Managed to set up station for CQWW in M/S category with less than 100kg.
of equipment - cables and antennas included! Weather was with us and
despite the gusts coming from different directions we ended the contest
with the same amount of antennas we started it with. Surprisingly, you
still find lots of mosquitos here, even during winter season. Luckily,
LZ4AW and LZ5VK survived their attacks. Operation was held from location
with low level of RF noise and we managed to copy extremely weak signals
without sophisticated RX antenna system. Still, it was very hard to
convince lots of participants that our prefix is SW9, not
5W9/SP9/SA9/HW9/SV9/SW1/SW0/IW9 and so on .. hope they take this into
account next year.
Special thanks goes to:
Our host Georgios SV9DJO for his exceptional support and, of course, for
running the most intense pile-ups!
Alex LZ4AX (9X4XX) for inspiring us to do such
Low-Power-Wire-Antenna Operations!
The local Gyro and Freddo shops for keeping us alive during these
exhausting 48 hours!
73!
