Comments:
That was a blast! I got the idea of working this one last week and did not plan
to do any SO2R but decided to get the inband setup running on the SO2R position.
And I am really glad I did because I worked 397 qsos S&P and I believe most
of those were on the 2nd radio inband. And it does not only boost the score but
makes it so much more fun to operate as well.
Not the best sporadic E but at least 10m and 15m was decent, but I did fall
behind on these bands in the beginning. However a new SM record at least and I
did not feel I could have done much things to make it better. It is always scary
in the beginning when 10m is somewhat open and you don't really know if this is
the best it will be or if it will improve later.
I tried to avoid running too much on 160m because I could not do S&P on the
same band with the second radio so rate did not get as high as on 80/40m. I need
to put up a proper antenna for 160m at the inband site.
I used DXLog and it worked really well. The team has done huge improvements from
when I tried using it last time Single Op.
160m: 1/4 vertical
80m: 4-SQ
40m: 3/3el + 2/2el + 4-SQ
