Comments:
I entered in QRP mode with an FT-817 and two antennas (wire
dipole and 3-band vertical). In general conditions were poor.
There was a good opening to SE europe (400 - 1000 km skip)
on Saturday evening and a brief opening to 5B4 early Sunday
morning. Later I experienced a long Es opening to G, GW, F,
EI, EA, CT on Sunday morning with very good reports from CT.
I did work some UA9 big guns on Sunday morning - but no trace of
UA0, JA. I failed miserably with 5U7JB pile-up on Sunday morning,
but I had a difficult QSO with FY5KE (his sunrise). At 1030z
the band started closing and was dead by 1110z. Later I
managed to worked P40K (QSL via WM6A) after considerable effort.
This was my only DX for the contest. S. American propagation
(LU, CX, PY) started at about 1430z. Signals with pronnounced QSB.
At about 1500 propagation moved up to US Atlantic coast (W4 & W1).
See you next year!
