Soapbox Comments
________________
In despite of some technical issues (lack of multiplier antenna for higher
bands,
band to band QRM due to proximity of antennas, occassional RF pick-up in
computers
which forced us to reboot them several times), we had lot of fun and enjoyed
operating in Region 1 Field Day contest very much. Balloon supported vertical
for top band turned again to be our secret weapon.
At the same time, S50J and S56ZUR were active in the VHF & UHF ZRS contest,
working with an IC-821H and FT-815 for 50 MHz, not to achieve top-score
results, but only to make the S58U callsign active on as many as possible ham
bands. Under Graziano's elmership, S56ZUR made his first several dozens of
contest
contacts. It seems he is catched by contest bug now and that at soon we'll
listen
to his own contest war-stories at Tuesday's club meetings.
While operators on duty were busy making contacts, others enjoyed great family
party with barbecue, delicious olive bread and nut cake prepared by S51VI's
XYL Silva, attended by S58MU's wife and daughter Spela, S52RO and his son,
S57LO's wife
Danijela with son Rok and little daughter Maja, S59AV's wife Brigita with
daughter
Julija, S51VI's wife Silva and son David, S57NKI with daugher Maja, and we
were visited
shortly by Vlado, S57KV with his wife, S57AZW Elizej, S57MSE Niki, S56C Alen
with his wife
Doroteja and daughter Maja, AC6DD's wife Stephia. We were visited also by
Mario S56A,
N1YU and Marijan S58O, both members of S53Z/P team operating from another
location few miles
away.
We are most grateful to Ales, S56LPY, who let us operate from his ranch, and to
all the club members, especially to S56IAI, S57JEL, S57RW and others, who
helped us in
setting up and dismantling the station.
I have observed all competition rules as well as all regulations established
for amateur radio in my country. My report is correct and true to the best
of my knowledge. I agree to be bound by the decisions of the Awards Committee.
