WPX 2000

 

from left: IZ7DER and IZ7ATH

Let's start from the beginning; as for other contest, also this time we decided to take part in wpx 2000 only some days before the contest; I'll not describe all work to build antennas, set-up computer, software ecc; we put up a new station in the country-house of Cesare, IK7XNF, where there isn't nothing (no water, no electricity).
In the first photo IZ7ATH (on the right) and IZ7DER (on the left) happy to be surviving after they have put up a 12 meters pole (a whole 12 mt pole)

 

 

IZ7ATH

Here IZ7ATH (I'm) at the sunset happy for the well-done (??) job: are all those antennas showy? may be somebody can become suspicious.
Let's see:
1) 4 element yagi monobander for 10 mt;
2) Full-wave loop for 15 mt;
3) Rotative dipole for 20 mt;
4) Wire dipole for 80 mt;
5) 12 meter vertical for low band.
