Comments:
First time I tried real SO2R with a homemade magic box. A slow contest as this
one from F was a good opportunity.
A pity there were no 36 first hours as this was by far my best rate (127)
though quite low; surprised to see 15 m so wide open at 2:00 AM.
Ten was disappointing, especially on saturday. Overall participation remains
very low for this early summer contest but all of us have been expecting sun
for months.
Rig :
FT-1000MP + AL1500 at left hand and TS-950SD + Alpha 91b at right.
4-square slopers on 80, mistuned 3 el 40 @24m, 5 el 20 @24m, 5 el 15 @21m, 6 el
10 @15 m and 5 el 10 @26m. Only one 180 m beverage to NW this time and I had
to take it down during my second off time as I had to stop and return back home
at 20:30z on sunday do be ready at work on monday at 06:00z. This constrain
helped a lot to schedule my off times.
The station was great but again this time I located a problem between the
radios and the chair. Bad sleep management following excessive "gardening"
works on friday. Grass is growing too fast for me and I'm afraid the HF of the
week end did even worse.
