Interesting propagation all week-end long. Used three yagi's as follows:
innovantenna LFA 2-element - Fixed SA
Innovantenna LFA 3-element - Fixed EU (rotated to NA at EU sunset)
Force 12 C3 - rotable
The LFA along with my location on the east of the island gave me a pipeline
into EU. It also felt like propagation was bad to NA in any event and it was
very noisy in that direction.
Was short of my target by a couple hundred thousand points and 600 Q's short of
my plan. This was made up by a decent number of prefises worked and the high
number of three-pointers (EU, SA) worked. Normally EU isn't so good and I have
to depend on NA to make up the numbers.
Running LP is always a challenge and it was difficult getting decent runs
goingbefore one of those 5KW stations to the east and south of me stole away
the frequency.
This shows the breakdown of where my Q's were made:
160M 80M 40M 20M 15M 10M Total %
OC 0 0 0 0 0 16 16 1.1
NA 0 0 0 0 0 296 296 20.9
SA 0 0 0 0 0 99 99 7.0
AF 0 0 0 0 0 17 17 1.2
EU 0 0 0 0 0 947 947 66.7
AS 0 0 0 0 0 43 43 3.0
Thanks for all the stations that pulled out my peanut-whistle and look forward
to the next time.
73, Dean - 8P6SH
