Comments:
It was a semi-serious approach, made in order to check what our KLM KT34 (4el)
tribander @111 ft (37m) is able to perform on this band and to experience K3
again. The first time to use Elecraft´s K3 on the sideband mode: very
sensitive RX; but I would say, its excellence is to be found in CW. KT34 as a
short and multiband antenna showed up more than solid.
Due to station sharing with dear OM Hardy, DF3GY, who entered SO40HP, on 20m I
was able to give out some pts to the colleagues overseas only...
The 15m was by far not in shape like being in CW leg ( wkd as E77XZ ), but I
tryed to make the best out of it. The Saturday was even well compared to
Sunday, where the band opened later, letting even big guns sounding like small
pistols first. Around American noontime things got better, but never improved
and appeared to be like the first day. Band closed then earlier too. Very
interesting small runs from Florida 2nd day, at the band opening - it was the
only area to be worked for some 20 min. Generally: the hard job...
On 20m the hard job was to find a clear spot for run. QRM-Extreme! Both days I
joined the "boiling pot" for some two hours: O Boy, it was a great feeling,
runs went in peaks to over 370 Q/h...
In short: a great party! Congratulations to the top scorers and thank you all
for the QSO´s.
73 Suad, DK6XZ ( E77XZ )
PS: In CQ WW WPX SSB joining the DR1A-Crew. See you there...
