GM2TMULTI-TWOAnother fantastic contest only issue was losing 15M late on the Sunday evening and it was too dark to investigate.Nice to see a Foundation Licence holder willing to have a go at contesting and glad to say took to it like a duck to water.CME Flare did affect us on the Saturday with conditions not really at their best. Sunday it all came back to normal

HA8RTSA HIGH ALLBig thanks to HA6PX for allowing me to use his equipment. Thanks to everybody who called me... It my first CQ WW SSB where I've worked almost 40 hours
HB2TMULTI-TWOWe greatly enjoyed having such a fine, international team with 8 members and 4h shifts. FT 2000 mod., FTDX5000 and Quadra Amps. all worked flawlessly. Condx were also sometimes surprisingly good on 10 and 15m, great runs into NA and Asia. This time again all was field-day style operation (500m altitude, north of Zurich, on a hill side plateau with 150m x 300m opening in the woods, with our 7 and 5.5 KVA generators and container shack on wheels). Two 24 m towers (surplus German Armed Forces) carried our tuned 160m 2x30m dipole, 5 over 5 stack for 20m (upper, top-rotatable), 2 el. 40m Yagi (rot.), 40m inverted Vee, 80m inverted Vee, 2x20m up 15m tuned for 10m- "wild" radiation pattern also to AF,SA- , 7el Yagi to NA, 4 el. Yagi to JA. On 15m we used-a fixed to NA- 5el wide spaced Yagi (LX7I) and a 20 to 10m Multiband Optibeam, rot., with 3 active el.on 15m, 10m up. Most of the new stack matches/power splitters were homemade as well as the harmonics-stub-filters( e.g. 160 to 80m with over 70 dB) all showed excellent performance. Several PL connectors needed field fixing and new seals! Always good to do early TDR ( cable radar ) tests. Setting up took 2 days and taking down about one day. Nice contest with lots of fun and satisfaction. Only on 160m and may be 80m, this time, we should have installed our beverages,however too time consuming. Sorry we did not hear all the calling DX/Multis in the QRN

IO4WSA HIGH 15MOne more contest from IO4W, still 15m HP assisted as this is my favorite band and some sleeping is possible QSOs but more mults, so the final score is a little more than the previous year. Propagation appeared to be better on Saturday, while on Sunday it had 1-2 hrs of delay, but more mults were on the band. It was a little up & down from IO4W this year, on Sunday in particular, several times I called CQ with no takers for extended periods of time. Happy to have worked all 40 zones. Highlights running USA stations on Sunday afternoon, and the really HUGE pileup of TY4AB. Thanks for QSOs,everybody!! Ciao, Fabio IZ4AFW / IO4W / NZ1W
