Equipment Description: TS850SAT + 700 watts
Inverted Vees 72meters and 25meters up.
Comments: Upper antenna broke after 3 hours .. went to bed. Before that our
very high antenna performed very well.
I started warming up 25 minutes before the contest time and got a small pile
up of UAs and URs. 30 seconds before 22z S57M came to QRG with +30db signal
and started "VVV VVV de S57M". Of course at the beginning of the contest he
resisted to move ... WHAT A GUMP! I moved 1,5 kcs and worked 100 first hour ...
so had some signal. I think S57M owes me a beer in Slovenia next summer!
In the morning there was one 599+++ DL5 station with a same kind of low
behavior.
