Comments:

K3s twin remote setup, 2el Yagi at 90', Acom 2000a.

This was the second CW contest from the new remote. I was very pleased with the
station performance. There was only one very brief internet outage when my WISP
provider went down, but I was back up in about 5 minutes. Compared to the old
home QTH, my ears exceed my TX which is a nice change, but can be very
frustrating at times.

Propagation here were not great, but I have seen worse. Usually 39 zones is
achieved, but this year I worked 35, and heard and called only 37. I found it
almost impossible to get a sustained EU run going, even during our pre-sunset
peak. JA was a bit easier. The morning EU path was tricky with both LP and SP
conflicting to cause that dreaded multi-path "echo" leaving many
station unreadable either LP or SP. Well after sunrise, things settled down
with solid short-path polar signals.
