Was active in the IARU HF World Championships as M2W from Midday (UTC) Saturday 12th July – about 8am (UTC) Sunday 13th July, by which time I was knackered.
I could have probably done as little better, but was also looking after my 9 year old nephew.
Was my first big scale HF contest on my own, although I was going to do with Peter M3PHP, but he had a medical emergency (he is better now).
Equipment used:-
- Icom IC-756ProIII
- Yaesu FT-897 for a few contacts on 80m as had better ATU
- Icom SM-20 Desk Mic
- WinTest Logging Software (but RigExpert S/D wouldn’t work, so manual band changes)
- Laptop to keep Nephew amused for hours quietly
OK, wasn’t the best entry, and will not win any awards, but I did better than my CQ WPX entry were I got Zero entries.
