June 2008

In short it was a very nice contest with a very good 23cm result, nice DX to the east, a new square IN88 on 23cm, the first QSO with Italy on 23cm, and many new bests on 13cm: Most QSOs ever, best score ever, best average ever, most squares ever, and a new All-time-ODX with OM3W JN99CH 856km, wo called us on 23cm (we worked him before) to arrange a sked for 13cm, and who appeared on 13cm after our first CQ with a real 539 on the s-meter…steady! Incredible! The previous All-time-ODX was more than 100km lower…3cm enjoyed light rainscatter on saturday with some 300km QSOs, and better rainscatter conditions on sunday with nice DX to OK and OE, but not many stations to work. The scatter was available for a long time, but no new stations appeared or answered our CQs. But at least we could improve our All-Time ODX on 3cm from well below 550km to 616km with OE5VRL/5.

Everything worked fine and flawlessly, so Murphy was around somewhere else, obviously…
