We had a very happy Easter week end with family and contesting. No Murphy visits
during this contest at the II9PAPA station. We followed the TV world blessing by
Pope Francesco and we had Benedetto at our station too (Antonello, IT9EQO son)!
Special guest operator Carlo, IK1HJS. Nice guy! He will be again in our team,
that's sure!
About conditions we didn't expect a big partecipation during the Easter week
end. This was truth during some hours and not true during others. Maybe we had
a notch of partecipation during lunch time.
Propagation was not good during saturday, but we even had some skewed path QSOs
to USA on 10 meters as well. During sunday we had some good QSOs on 10 meters
direct path with States, but not really widely open to all of USA on 15 meters
too. As prop conditions were disturbed in the previous days, I think that
openings to high latitudes were not so good. But here in South EU maybe we
suffer this conditions not so much as other stations in Northern Sky. What
about our score? We can improve that next year! Antennas on 15 meters are not
very good and this is the best band for WPX. On low bands good antennas on 80
meters worked. On 40 we still need a Yagi and maybe we can build a SIX ELEMENT
WIRE YAGI with a 200 meters slope in USA direction. USA stations, thank you for
your patience in making QSO with us. We are working to make that think simpler!
Best regards, on behalf of II9P Team, IT9GSF, Fabio.
