I was QRV
from Myconos
Island twice as SV1QN/8. The first time in August 1995 with 4700 QSOs
in
SSB and CW , using an ICOM 751 and a vertical antenna . (A fishing pole
8 meters long , 24 radials each 12 meters long, and an automatic
antenna
tunner). The second time in August 1997 with 1500 QSOs in SSB CW RTTY
and
SSTV with the same antenna but this time with an ICOM 756 the PK-900 by
AEA and a PC 486-33Mhz.
Also I activated a
lighthouse
(called Armenistis) in the north part of the island during the
Lighthouse/Lightship
activity weekend in 23 & 24 August 1997 with about 300 QSOs. (Tnx
to
Mike GM4SUC for inviting us to take place in this activity). Mny tnx to
my friend Jim SV1OZ for his invaluable assistance for this operation.
Also mny tnx to Mrs
Vasso Ziaka
for the hospitality in Myconos Is.
