I really like Classic, especially with those spectacular condx!
After the first morning 10 & 40m were not up to my expectations and I found
the cause to be the 10/40m rotor off by about 45deg - once again! The Prosistel
rotor really is a miracle to me as it was correctly aligned minutes before the
contest. But of course it is hard to get rid of Murphy once he has settled down
in a little iron rotor case.
I wanted to operate 2/3 on Saturday and work the lowbands during the high-rate
hours at the beginning. In retrospect it would have been better to ignore
multipliers on 80/160m and maximize operating time on the high bands.
I enjoyed working HK1NA with my stationmate DK3GI at the key.
Congrats to HA3NU for an outstanding score!
CU in the next one,
73,
Stefan
