Comments:
SO2R with FT1000MP and IC735. First time with rig control and antenna
switching working on both radios. Win-Test worked a treat but swapping
with Ctrl-S was a bit scary at times!
Antennas:
160m shunt fed tower
80m delta loop
40m 4-square
20m 4el up 73ft, delta loop
15m 4el up 83ft
10m 4el up 78ft
K9AY receive antenna for 160 & 80
Really hard work in the low power section - on 20m in particular it was
impossible to find and hold a run frequency, so just about all the QSOs
were S+P. Things were much easier on 15 and 10m. Didn't get C50C on 40m.
He was listening on 7.270 and seemed to be working a number of Europeans!
