Antennas: Mosley CL37 tribander @56', AP8A vertical with 32 radials(used mostly
for 80 and 40), R7, Inv.Vees for 80/160, Alpha Delta dipole (40-80-160).
87 dupes called in. Best hour - 265/hr (16...17 z Sat.)
Had a lot of problems this time. To name a few: HDD crash, 160 m antenna died
(thanks to VE2XAA for repairs), burned front end of one of the radios...
Conditions were poor at the beginning of the contest. Improved on the 2nd
day.
80/40 m short vertical with 32 radials (21 m each) performed very well
though. should have made something like that for 160m...
Thanks to VE2NN, VE2XAA and ARASI for the help and hospitality. And VE3EO,
VE3EY, VE3XB and VE3NE - for their help before the contest.
Thanks for all the QSOs everybody, pile-ups were incredible. CU next year.
