ARRL RTTY Roundup Call: K4GMH Operator(s): K4GMH Station: K4GMH Class: Single Op HP QTH: VA Operating Time (hrs): Summary: Band QSOs ------------ 80: 443 40: 249 20: 485 15: 144 10: 0 ------------ Total: 1321 State/Prov = 58 Countries = 63 Total Score = 159,841 Club: Potomac Valley Radio Club Comments: Thanks to all who were kind enough to work me as I do appreciate every QSO. The bands, outside of 80 and 40, were not very good (I've gotten spoiled). Twenty did have some life and 15 meters had some activity. Didn't try 10 meters as figured it was a lost cause, especially the way the contest is structured - no multipliers per band. Did not think I would be in the contest as a problem occurred somewhere in the cables or antenna switching stuff out on the tower. The problem was first seen on Wed. after checking out the amp. for the first time with the new tower and ant. system. Several things were found that needed to be fixed once the power output was run up to 1 KW. All were taken care of except for finding the problem with the cable and antenna switches. The problem was finially isolated to a improperly installed homemade coax connector on the end of the FSJ-4 coax at the top of the tower. It was found at aruond 2000Z. Up until then I had figured on just watching the football playoffs. o 73, Mike, K4GMH _______________________________________________ RTTY mailing list RTTY@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/rtty |
