[CCF] FW: SAC SSB OG7X(@OH7M) SOAB HP

[Mikko, OH4XX]

Olihan taas kopio viime vuodesta. Alku lähti lujaa, ukko väsyi jne.  Typotin
tuohon että 1100q oli 00Z, tarkoitin siis 22Z  ja tarkalleen 2110Z :D
Kisassa oli hyvä alku mutta 22Z-06Z kisa sitten ratkesi muutamaan
allekirjoitaneen virheeseen.No kivaa oli kuiteskii.

Prepapration for this contest was a pain. After CW leg we had some work to
do at
OH7M constest site. high band tower was stuck to EU direction but
fortunately
Ari OH7MHL found suitable motor and Timo OH7MS did spend Friday to fit new
motor to tower and tightennig guy wires. In order to get Esa OH7WV on air
during the SAC I spend Friday evening and Saturday morning at my home QTH to
set up remote connection. Finally we did manage to get the connection
working
but it turned out that connection from Zhanghai to Finland was not good
enough
in order to use remote station. sigh.. I was already tired and my schedule
was
a bit compromised and I was way behind actual plan. I arrived to OH7M site
abt
hour prior contest start and I had to climb to tower to finalize
maintenance.
Station was a bit messy after CW leg so  I had about 20 minutes to build the
set up for SOAB, I think I was ready one minute before the start :D  First 5
to
6 hours went just great, the 20 meters was hot and I was  getting ahead with
other SOAB's, NA propgation was good so I managed to work over 700Q before
moving to lower bands. during the night time I jumped between 80 and 40 ans
some peaks on 20. 00Z I had over 1100 Q so it looked good..At 2130Z I was
like
zombie, could not keep awake and I thought maybe short nap would help which
eventually was 3 hours (there goes the lead :( ). Quite a bit same what
happen
last year .Early hours Sunday morning were painfull and I think I  mistake
moving to high bands too early. There is no station automation nor SO2R
stuff
at OH7M so band change is always time consuming and moving multipliers is
not
that simple, you can do it but most likely you end up to loose your spot. I
did
manage to move couple of them however not enough as you can see my
multiplier
total. Congrats to Tomi (@OH0Z) and Pertti (@OJ0B).

Thanks for the QSO's and cu in next one.
