OZ5EM2We have to report two problems 1)After 26-03-16 2308 on 80m we lost our radio1 (station 0). The new radio we installed at 26-03-16 0236 was without cat. 2)Starting on 27-03-16 1152 radio1 (station 0) serial numbers on 20m from 302 to 318 are not in numerical order- that means these numbers were given twice on 20m
OZ6OMSO QRP ALLQSO 313 Call date corupted. QSO 247 TS60ID refused to give serial number. Antennas in use, Tribander at 100 ft. 40m. vertical full dipole 80/160m dipole wit feedingpoint in 100 tf. ConDX 10m. closed, 15 a few good DX but else acting odd. 20m. gennerally in good shape, 40m. kind of hard work. 80m. a plesant surprise, vy good activity 40% of all QSOs worked here, 160m surprised to have 10 QSOs each night.

PI4AMFMSHRude and unpolite operators listen first before you start on a frequency with calling CQ Contest
PJ2/DD5ZZSO LP ALLHad a great time working the contest from Curacao! Tnx to VERONA for letting me use their clustation
PJ4DXSA HP ALLEverything was "down" this year. My beam was down about 6ft (one telescopic mast section) due to strong winds, my 40m phased array was down due to a mystery high SWR condition that I didn't have time to fix before the contest (but every cloud has a silver lining and this allowed me to enter the Tribander/ Single Element section), my QSO total was down by nearly 1300 QSOs, my multiplier total by nearly 100 mults, and my claimed score by nearly 6 million points! Last year over 2500 QSOs on 10m alone: this year, only 300. Is this the beginning of the end of Cycle 24? Conditions were poor on Day 1, and I was seriously considering calling it a day before midday on Sunday, but suddenly things improved and Sunday afternoon and evening were really great. I'll be back next year. Rig: Yaesu FT-2000, Acom 1500 amp at 1kW out, to a Spiderbeam for 10-15-20m at only 30 feet, and single quarter-wave wire verticals on 40m and 80m
