Despite we are top OK VHF/UHF/SHF contest station, we decided to try something
other. (Btw. our rivals OL4A,OL7M,OK1KIM and OK2D are top VHF/UHF/SHF stations
too)
Lot of us have the experiences from HF so it was not very difficult to compete
on 160m.
We used an unusual vertical antenna support, 30m high heavy crane.
We afraided of crane influence to the antenna, but finally it was not
observed.
It was lot of fun for us and our congratulations to our rivals OL4A and OL7M.
For the next year we ordered 40m crane!
