Comments:
This was a fully remote operation, so the entry is eligible for Multi-op Xtreme
overlay category. Three of us (DW, NA and GZU) worked from different locations
in Bucharest (200 Km away from YR1C QTH in Constanta) and NF operated from his
home in Constanta. Compared to previous operations, no one was physically
present at the station during the contest.
We unfortunately encountered some issues, harder to solve when no one is in the
shack. They summarized about 3 hours, and consisted in a power outage, software
problems that necessitated several computer restarts, station resets and
general power switches, and the toughest one, a grounding problem that
prevented us to work more on 10m band.
We thank Cornelius YO4DW for joining our team at the last moment, even if he
had family commitments for the weekend.
