Comment on contest NAC Microwave Contest de SM7ECM Quite high activity. Worked more stations than normal, but many of them with weak signals. Managed to work LA6LCA in the beginning of the contest on all bands up to 3 cm. But after that I was outside of the duct. Heard other stations some kilometers west of me (OZ-stations) and south of me (DL-stations) working LC3NAT, LA3DV and LA0BY/p and I heard nothing from LA although some of the QSO´s were almost passing "over my head". SK7MW (south of Malmo) managed to work to LA but only with the antenna in direction SW (to DL/PA ). Very busy contest with 37 QSO´s on 4 bands. Even had to say no to a couple of people who called via phone and wanted to try on higher bands. Not funny at all but what can you do when time is to short.
