Comments:
We had hassles from:
A couple of PCs over the two days
An amplifier
Tribander
dodgy 40/80 vertical which caused much hassle for the more able antenna minded
members of
the Team, as they got saddled with trying to fix it
My ATU - death by moisture due to the storm
Dodgy TX/RX relay on my MP - needs to be fixed ASAP!
Andrew's Icom got stroppy and refused to switch Trent's amplifier initially -
it cured itself!
LF was pretty much unusable during the contest. HF was more interesting and we
had a great run
on 10m at the begining of the contest. It was as much as I could do to get the
calls into the log.
Great fun.
15m also did much of the same - but sporadically.
20m was a little variable too, but often provided a great run.
40m was not usuable due to TVI problems.
80m was a non-starter for all manner of reasons, but antenna hassles didn't
help.
160m was a re-tuned 80m antenna and was engulfed in storm static and local
noise.
All in all a part-time, band limited and un-assisted MS attempt for the VK4TI
Team. The score will
easily be improved upon!
