[WWYC] VK8GM CQWW CW

[Thomas Andersen]

Hi guys,

Another fun CQWW CW contest from Down Under. Still need to figure out
how to do the low bands from here, but the pile ups on 10 and 15 all
day long are just great fun.

Thanks for all the WWYC QSOs!

Next week I will be back on the bike cycling towards Adelaide,
Melbourne and Sydney: http://www.cyclingtheglobe.com/

Big thanks to Greg VK8GM for the use of the station and for amazing
hospitality.

15 and 10 meter continues to amaze from Down Under. Pile up all day long, big
fun! On the other hand the low bands are tough. Even though we put up dipoles
and sloopers for 80 and 160, almost nothing got through.

Congratulations to N2NL @ NH2T for another amazing score from OC.

Setup:
Yeasu FT-920 + IC2-KL @ 3-400 W
8 el. log periodic @ 13 m
40 m inv. V
80 m delta-loop
