Comments:
The multi-op activity ar NR4M has been canceled, and I was happy to accept
Steve's generous invitation to operate from the Goat(less) Farm. The setup was
excellent and the station operated beautifully. One problem was the 160 antenna
(2 el vertical array) which developed a high SWR before the contest. I missed
most of the Euopean multipliers on this band because they couldnt hear my
signal. Propagation was great but it could have been even better, considering as
a reference the phone edition at the end of October. Solar flux was not that
high in the past weeks, and unfortulately the planetary K-index was 3 and 4
during the weekend. Conditions on 80 and 40 were much better than expected.
First night I wasted time trying to sleep but I couldn't, probably I had too
much coffee. Second night I had a three hours nap, but when I woke up at 6am, 20
was already wide open. I may beed a better sleep management.
Thanks for the Qs!
Many thanks go to Steve NR4M for allowing me to operate his great station at
Locust Grove VA.
