My home location near central London precludes any sort of viable contest
operation, either in terms of power or more particularly antenna(s). My contest
activity is entirely /P at an address around 90 miles from home, which makes for
a long, tiring, lonely weekend. This time I had originally intended to try a
basic form of SO2R, with a separate rig/antenna on 10m only. However a lack of
time to rig in the dark late on Friday evening, together with a computer which
wouldn't boot past the WIN98 screen dictated otherwise.
Thoroughly enjoyed the contest, and will next time improve antenna on 40m, which
was a total let-down! In order to get more than 1 QSO on 40, I lashed up a
dipole at 30ft agl for an hour on sunday evening - what an improvement on the
apparent dummy load I had used previously.
Next time???
