Highs:
The team. All operators spent really long hours sitting even with bands almost
dead, calling CQ. The friendship among
team members is somenthing that goes beyond what you can imagine. We are
FRIENDS.
Lows:
Luc, not being able to attend till 21 UTC on Saturday.
LU8ADX not able to attend at all. We really missed one op more on 20.
S9+20 Noise during five key hours Saturday morning prevented us from getting
the most out of the installations while 15
was openning to EU and 20 and 40 were crowded of low signal JAs. A further
research on the noise source made us conclude
that is was being originated in some kind of sodium gas LAMP somewhere near the
Shack. We were not able to locate the
source, but we'll work on it.
QRN was an issue as allways during somertime here.
Already draw a maintenance plan to renew coax lines and other stuff.
Thanks to everyone who gave us a call. Apologies to all those we could'n hear
throug the high QRM Sat and Sun mornings.
Thanks in advance to LW4EU who handed out some 50 silver-Teflon PL259
connectors for us to replace an repair feedlines
We'll start maintenance during mid April.
