Comments:
First intention was to go for a full run on 15m, as propagation was good the
past 2 weeks on this band.
Had a major technical failure at the beginning of the contest, so changed to
S&P, low power only.
Just for fun, trying to get a DXCC in 1 weekend and tried to work as much zones
as possible.
Got the DXCC and just missed zone 2 and 29.
Hard work with low power and always blasted away from eastern EU (to much) high
power stations.
I always must laugh when reading the contestrules about the power limit.
Band was full of splattering signals all the time. Some have to do something
about that, otherwise the SSB contests are not workable anymore. Viva CW and
RTTY.
Anyhow, 15m was great and that was some time ago. I'm happy with my result,
concerning the circomstances I had to work in.
See you all in CW at the end of the month.
Setup: FT2000, Optibeam OBW 10-5, N1MM.
