Comments:

Condx were best on saturday. The higher bands were open for a very long time. 10
meters were open for Europe but OK and easy to make QSOs with LP. QRN on low
bands were high. A very high QRM as hum and key click from LY4A on 14033,4 KHz.
Asking him to check it out did not give any response.
Used a TH3MK4 at 10 meters - armstrong turned. The beam was not always the
best. G5RV - ZS6BKW design and a Butternut with elevated feed point and tuned
radials seemed to outperform the beam for certain directions. Also big
difference between the G5RV and the Butternut at times. - 4-6 S-units.  The
radio a K3 with 90 watts and the RX finally seems to work in contest after
adjusting the AGC settings according to a suggestion from GM3SEK - thanks a
Million. First time used the N1MM logger plus. It worked extremely well.
Overall a very good weekend and had fun. Cheers to all
