IC756PRO3(INRAD) + ICPW1

WT v3.23.0 / MMTTY on HP Omnibook XE3
HAL DXP38 in receive only on another Omnibook 

      (80) DP with feedpoint 1m below tribander
      (40) Cushcraft Rotary DP spaced 1m above tribander (parallel to boom)
(20/15/10) Optibeam OB16-3 @ abt 40m total height (on a university building
           with 17m crank-up tower on roof)

10M, finally!

This was my first ever CQWW RTTY and the score may be good enough for a new DL
record (among others, I guess).

I'm thankful to the radio club members of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology
(KIT) allowing me to access their fine station. The new 40m antenna is an
improvement over the previous wire dipoles but with high band condx so good it
was hard to squeeze in enough time on 40/80!

In RTTY there is no way to compensate for not being SO2R. But I didn't want to
reconfigure the club station and put up additional antennas at this point,
maybe next time. Scanning the RTTY band for multipliers often seemed to take
forever. Many times I did not want to give up a nice DX run and this is
reflected in my multiplier totals. 

Thanks for the QSOs,


73,

Stefan
