Just finished installing my new antenna on the thursday (THANKS José LuÃs
EA5YC). Got up early saturday with a view to doing SOSB 15m but the band just
didn't open. After weighing up my options I decided to do SOAB and just have
fun while putting the antenna through it's paces. Spent a lot of time on 10 and
15 just to see how I got on, instead of getting the points on 20. Saturday
evening I tried loading up the antenna on 40 and then on 80 on Sunday morning,
managed a few contacts. Tried the same trick sunday night and my XYL ran
through to tell me I was causing TVI (communal TV antenna for the whole
building!) so that put an end to the contest..... I'm just glad I can run a KW
on the higher bands with no problems at my new downtown condo.
Rig TS850S (my 765 still at the fixers)
Tremendus 2 (1 kw)
Optibeam OB6-3M at 27m (90') on top of the building
Thanks to all for the QSOs
