Take off was very fine all around
but terrible QRN from the nearby wind power system caused big trouble especially on EME,
when many people were calling us but S9+ QRN made it impossible to copy anybody. We are
very sorry about this...Sometimes we had a clean window from 30 to 50 degrees
elevation and fine QSO´s resulted with 4 Yagi stations. To all the others calling us: Sorry!
On most of the days we had big
winds, peaking up to 100 kilometers per hour, all day and all night. We kept our finges
crossed all day not to loose the few antenna systems.
