Comments:
We are pleased by our results this year from our hotel roof in downtown
Ouagadougou. We apologize to those we could not pick out of the noise on
80/160. We battle tremendous QRN from the equatorial region every year. It
makes hearing extremely tough. We tried numerous antennas this year, including
a short beverage down an alley way, a K9AY loop, and a magnetic loop along with
the TX antennas.
All in all it was a very smoothe operation with only one glitch during the
contest. The current balun on the 160m sloper burned up on the 2nd night but it
was quickly replaced.
A couple of the team members battled a stomach ailment before the contest but
recovered in time. We made over 5,000 QSO's outside of the contest and an
additional 1,000 plus QSO's on 6 meters using XT2WP.
