RADIO ARCALA’S ATLANTIC OUTPOST CR2X IN AZORES (EUROPE)
Many were wondering what was this sudden CR2X appearance in the recent CQ WW CW
Contest? Indeed the mission was once completed as CR2X had captured CQWW CW/SSB
and ARRL DX Contest CW/SSB SOAB records at once, and additionally every CW/SSB
ARRL single band record were under their belt. All these records are still
holding.
But the CR2X station is still up and running but now with a new remote concept.
The CQWW CW was its very first test and everything worked out just fine. Maybe
you had contacted this seasoned call with a new approach?
Flex Radio 6700 and Maestro combination is employed and fiber optic line is
transferred over the mountain from capital Ponta Delgada to the mountain top
(9km) and then down to the station on Northern Shoreline at 100m ASL, nearby the
city of Ribeira Grande (12km). The internet speed at the station is some
20mb/s, supporting the S & P.
The station manager in Azores is Bruno, CS8ABG and at the control end in
Finland, Niko, OH2GEK, who operated this test run with no single technical issue
another than limited foot sprint with fixed beams to NA and EU.
The CR2X station is supported by; Martti, OH2BH/CU2KG, Juha, OH8NC/CU2KH and
Toni, OH2UA/CU2KI.
