Comments:
As the D4C contest station was not fully ready for a M/X effort due to the
reconstruction activities post Hurricane Fred that caused damages to Antennas,
Towers and coax Cables, two SB entry have been planned.
The idea was 10m and 20m but once on site, the high level of interferences
between 10m and 20m would have compromise the D4Z (IZ4DPV) entry on 10m.
HB9DUR and IZ4DPV have struggled for two days in trying to remove interferences
with significant results but still not optimal. This situation was caused again
by the visit of Hurricane Fred.
Therefore, the decision to change D4C (HB9DUR) entry from 20m to 40m was
taken.
This has been the first effort in a CQWW competition with a complete new
antenna setup on 40m installed on March 2015 already tested during CQWPX 2015.
I am happy with this results. Being far from EU it's sometimes really difficult
to keep an adequate clear run frequency.
setup:
3el wire Yagi towards EU Made by momobeam
3el wire Yagi towards USA Made by momobeam
We thanks MOMOBEAM for being our sponsor of such well performing antennas.
CU IN THE CW LEG in a Multi effort.
73, Andrea HB9DUR
