steel roof and additional 32 full seize radials under each vertical.

160M: Inverted V at 190 feet and my special MIRTA antenna (length 1.5 wave
length) pointed to Europe and about 10dB gain to Europe.


Equipment:
3 Icom 7800 
3 Icom 781
2 acom 2000A amplifiers

This station is fully setup for Multi 2; Multi single and single op SO2R

For this contest I used SO2R for the first time. (Micro Keyer 2R+)
All the switching is fully automated by N1MM software.

I started in beginning successfully with SO2R but then I realize that is was
kind of confusing and the Micro Keyer gave a lot of bugs, so I went to the old
fashion way 2 radioâEUR(tm)s and manual controlled switching, I also had to use 2
computers for logging this was a lot of work and a lot of wasted time.

I think my station works absolutely fabulous special on 160, 80 and 40 meters.
I may never challenge any body on the high bands but on the low band I hope I
will have some competion in the future (from the USA)

I am glad that there are still a lot of SO2R operators and friend who give me a
lot of drive for future contest, thanks to everybody and see you in the next
one.

Krassy,
K1LZ
