SB 220 Heathkit - 300 w rtty and bit more on ssb i cw
swr meter Diamond, low pass filter MFJ out of frame.

First rising. 6 meters high mast has broken. I had to decsrease to 4 meters. Antenna fell into pieces. Fortunately I had got more bamboo rods, so rebuilt beam.

Light tribander beam VK2ABQ ready.

Thursday 23 of April. Ferry arrived at Corsica 1.00 p.m. One hour later we are on campsite. Contest will start in 24h, and everything must be OK. Let's do it.

Antennas & mast. Nobody can beliveve in. It shouldn't work, bamboo rods, pvc pipes, wires, ropes, tapes, no no, it is impossible. How can I operate in contest?
