EA6IB 2007
CQ WW DX CW (M/2 HP)
Another effort from the lovely island of Ibiza. This year with rain and wind, the work outdoor was really hard, but ground planes were improved by the rain. The propagation was the typical for this solar minimum, with a very poor 10 meters band (if 10 meters band really existed), with only two north american big guns heard very low. On the other side, the chinesse radar must be horribly strong in the East, because lots of stations from this part of the world were heard while calling CQ over and over again, without hearing the big european pile-up which was calling them.
This contest was in the memory of Margarita (wife of our host Vicenç, EA6FO), who passed away about two months ago. Margarita, you will be always in our heart!!!
Thanks to everyone who called, especially to the european M/2 stations for this competitive weekend.
