Saturday, 1200z:
Up to now things are going well even if we meet a problem with the 3els 40m yagi. We have a high SWR almost since the contest beginning. Ice ? Too dark to check ! Hopefully we have spare antenna but less effective ! 4sq 80m does a great job. That’s not the best tool to hit EU receivers but at least we can isolate time to time signals due to its directivity.
This afternoon we fixed the problem that occurs on the 40m yagi since months. The antenna has been repaired and feed line inspected. 10m has been less interesting than expected but we finally made some contacts this morning. It was amazing to see the signal level of Chineese or Australian stations compared to the weaks signs of the EU stations.
Sunday morning:
At the moment we are running on 40m with huge queue ! We missed many qso’s last night !
