May 2017 UHF Contest
Flat tropo conditions this year, particularly difficult on the higher bands on Saturday. Aircraft scatter was working quite well, with good signals from many DX stations, but timing the QSOs to align with good planes was as difficult as ever.
Once again DL0GTH shows up in the best DX column on several bands, thanks to some slick operating at their end.
3cm still seems a bit down on what it should be, particularly on receive. Several long tests were undertaken on Sunday with DL's with mixed results.
