Comments:
Part time effort. Noise levels in the city are horrendous. Getting teh Magnetic
Loop helps a bit but working DX from here (VE4) is brutal. I tried to give out
the MB mult to the worthy but actually missed VE4VT for my own MB mult. (Ugh)
I would have liked to be at VE6SV with those condx. Lots of familiar US
calls...which is becoming the norm nowadays. Most contests from VE4/VE6 have
turned into domestic affairs...whether it is CQ WW DX, ARRL SS, ARRL 160 and
probably the upcoming 10 m contest...for what little propagation we may have to
US and S. Am./Caribbean. Only worked the ZF9 for DX. For some reason I kept
getting disconnected from packet spotting. Annoying when you're running
assisted. Could be RF problem in PC router.
Surprised to hear so many people missing VE4. I was there and calling CQ ... a
LOT.
See you next weekend.
