Comments:
Great RAC! Condx were good enough to work stations on 80-10 meters, making this
(I think) my first 80-10m 'test this year. No CMEs or solar flares, just an SFI
of 98, A of 6 and K of 2.
I didn't know the RAC Canada Day 'test was on until I heard it 2 hours into the
'test and immediately fired up N1MM to conduct a semi-casual operation on
Thursday. I Hit it harder on Friday. NA, SA, Oceania, Asia and Europe were
worked. Frequent band changes kept things moving along nicely. I heard stations
on 10m calling but with the S-7 PV system noise towards the mainland I couldn't
copy but two of you. Sorry about that. Seeing the spectrum scope go
"quiet" when a 'test ends is always satisfying.
Improvements to do next year:
A full size 40m vertical with 80m inverted-L
10m receive loop to null out the PV system noise
Operate most of the 'test -- about 20 hours
FTdx-10 + AL811 amp at 600W
6BTV vertical
Hexbeam up 35'
Fairly level shot to NA, uphill to EU and Asia, downhill to SA.
