After sustaining a lot of equipment damage during a storm
in the EJ2MT IOTA expedition we had 5 weeks to rebuild the
antennas and get our, now truncated, towers in a usable state.

That done setup went smoothly. We started the contest running JAs
on 20 then north america from 1430z, 20 slowed down at midnight
but a switch to 40 and 80 kept the rate going with europeans and
north americans. The greyline brought a handful of ZLs on both
40 and 80, 15 opened very briefly on Sunday morning and 10
stayed pretty much dead. Notable was the tremendous support from
DL with nearly 600 German QSOs made in total.

All in all good fun and nothing blew away.
