Comments:
SO2R TS850 + homebrew amp, TS450+ MLA 2500.
2x ICE 419A, coax stubs, home brew automated antenna switching
and station control.
TH7, 3x TH6, KT-34XA (EU) for 10-15-20 m,
2-o-2 for 40 m, all on a 145 foot tower.
Two phased verticals for 80 m, bi-directional E/W and South.
Upper guy wires (3) phased for 160m, SW, E and NNW.
Although the conditions left something to be desired, this is my highest
CQWW score so far with a similarly the highest multiplier count.
Saturday was slow but on Sunday particularly 10m was
wide open in the afternoon, same later for 15 and 20.
Did 145 band changes, 45 qsos only on the 2nd radio. Need some work on
the ergonomics, now the radios are on top of each other. The greatest thing
was a pedal on the floor that kills the non-active radio audio when needeed.
( often a CQ resulted in a very weak answer that was under the listening
radio's noise). In short - the more hours you spend on the radio the
better the score!
