Butternut HF6V at 0.01m

Club Affiliation: DeMontford university

Most of the club members had committments over the Easter holiday so a
planned serious M/S entry was not possible. So two single band entries
(20m and 15m) were made. The 20m amplifier only lasted a day as the high
SWR at the top end of 20m destroyed the power supply. The 15m station
amplifier was then used by Marios 5B4WN on the 20m station.

Interesting propagation on 15m with brief openings to various parts of
Europe during the weekend. First EA, then I and on Sunday a nice opening
to Scandanavia and most of Eastern Europe.

A more serious entry is planned for WPX CW as M7A.

QSL M7A (and M6A) via the RSGB Bureau or via the Internet
