Comments:

First I want to thank Ana for bearing with this madness sport. Amazing work from
my father CT1CJJ before the contest setting up all the antennas with my mother.


Arrived at the station friday around 20h UTC, so no time for nap before the
contest, as we are getting older, 48h was not possible so I had to take a nap
for abt 3h on sunday.

Sunday evening around 19h wind stated to blow, with wind gusts over 100km/h,
both towers had to be lowered in order not to have any damage to the antennas.
After that the 40m 4 elem was too low to work any asia and 80m dipole was not
usable.

15m conditions were the worst I have ever seen!

The station switching was completely rebuilt, now we are using VA6AM triplexers
+ filtering. Worked perfectly!

TX + RX system:
160m: Dipole E/W + Top loaded vertical
80m: 2elem vertical E/W + Dipole E/W
40m: 3elem wire yagi fixed to USA + 4 element 
20m: 3el+3el+4el
15m: 3el+3el+4el 
10m: 5el+5el+8el

RX system:
6 bevs  with preamp + splitting into 4 ways (only 2 needed for single op) 

Station is fully automatic (except one of the amps...) with all TX and RX
antennas being changed by touch screens home made.
