DL1ECG uploaded his pictures of the September Contest. Enjoy.

Finally i prepared the audio snippets of all the DX-QSOs > 800km we made during the September Contest. During the night, we started to have some gaps and skips in the recording, so at times especially our CW sounds very distorted or plain wrong. That is only in the recordings, and not due to our faulty keying :-). Enjoy!

If your QRB to us is below 800km, but you want to know how you sounded at JO30EM, just drop me a line, and i will extract our QSO from our recordings.

The boys of OM50KHE recorded our 904km-SSB-QSO with them. You can hear our (rather weak) signal on their website.

I updated the site with our September VHF Contest claim. All in all it was a nice contest without equipment failures, with some lifted conditions and nice (dry) weather. We already experienced worse in the years before :-).

We tried to record the contest as MP3, but after the contest we discovered a potential problem with the recordings made, but we still have to look into the files and decide whether they are usable. In that case, we will upload some sound snippets of exceptional QSOs to the site.

EDIT: The audio recording are now available here.
