Comments:

Condition was lousy on sunday here in middle Europe. Long distances during
the test I thought I am in a big black hole or without any antenna
connection. Nothing was to hear on 10/15/20m this time.

End the first run with 318 QSO's and the second with 579. So I was in my
personaly plan with 800 QSO's in this contest.

15m openings only on sunday afternoon, so I missed a lot of W's and VE's as
normally.
Could only hear and work 6 JA's on all bands. A surprise was 40m with a lot
of W, VE. Could work also ZL, PY, JA on 40m. On 10m only a couple QSO's with
mainly Scandinavian stations.

My SO2R setup working fine, but with some special band adjustments on the 2
radios the distance of the antennas between 2-10m are much to small.

The new callsign DL4R (Club call) produce some difficulties, some OM's
called me further with DL4RCK, hi. I will use this callsign only in contest,
otherwise DL4RCK is my personal call and is used.

Thanks to SARTG to sponsor this nice contest with the family friendly 3x8
hours setup and thanks to all who called me.
