Comment on contest NAC 1.3GHz Contest de SM7ECM I believe this must be my best result since I started working 23 cm NAC contests back in 1987. (And all the years I have worked with my small mobile transceiver IC-260) Hard to work with a single antenna system when conditions are in almost all directions. When I look at what others have worked I can see that I missed some stations in SP and OK but didn´t have time to have the antenna in that direction so much. Even worked one OK-station (OK2BFH in JN99) with the antenna in direction to England. Also missed some "standard-QSO´s", SM3BEI and SK0UX. The weakest station this evening was SM0DFP who normally have a good signal at my QTH. This time very hard to complete the QSO. In a normal contest about 90% of the QSO´s are in CW. But this contest only 44% in CW. CU next tuesday in the microwave contest ! ____________________________________________________________________ Contest: NAC 1.3GHz Contest Call: SM7ECM Section: A Loc : JO65NQ Date: 20051018 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | Band | TOTAL | QSO-POINTS | BAD | LOC-POINTS | QRB KM | | 1.3G | 62062 | 89 40062 | 0 | 44 22000 | GM4OGI 1050 | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Station description : 1.3G : IC-260+transv, preamp, 300W, 2x44el WIMO ----1.3G----1.3G----1.3G----1.3G----1.3G----1.3G----1.3G---- DX Date Time Call Loc Bnd Mod QRB QTE 1 20051018 1801 GM4OGI IO85DX 1.3G CW 1050 279 2 20051018 1935 G8OHM IO92AJ 1.3G SSB 1049 256 3 20051018 2011 G8XVJ IO83RJ 1.3G SSB 1040 262 4 20051018 1933 G8VHI IO92FM 1.3G SSB 1017 256 5 20051018 1955 M0GAV IO93GK 1.3G SSB 971 261 6 20051018 2058 G4AGE IO93IF 1.3G CW 970 260 7 20051018 1952 G3NEO IO93II 1.3G SSB 964 260 8 20051018 1947 G3XDY JO02OB 1.3G CW 878 248 9 20051018 1814 DF9IC JN48IW 1.3G CW 809 204 10 20051018 1720 OK2BFH JN99JQ 1.3G CW 769 148 Worked Locator IO83: 1 IO85: 1 IO92: 2 IO93: 3 JN48: 1 JN99: 1 JO02: 1 JO21: 2 JO22: 4 JO23: 1 JO31: 3 JO32: 1 JO33: 4 JO42: 2 JO43: 1 JO44: 2 JO45: 3 JO46: 3 JO50: 4 JO52: 1 JO53: 2 JO54: 3 JO55: 1 JO57: 1 JO58: 2 JO59: 3 JO60: 1 JO62: 4 JO63: 1 JO64: 3 JO65: 4 JO67: 2 JO68: 2 JO72: 2 JO77: 1 JO78: 1 JO79: 2 JO86: 2 JO89: 2 JO97: 2 JO99: 3 JP60: 1 JP70: 2 JP80: 1 Worked DXCC SM :24 LA : 3 DL :27 OK : 2 PA :11 OZ :13 GM : 1 SP : 1 G : 7 MODE: SSB=55% CW=44% PROP: TR=100% ----------------------------------------------------------- LOGGER 1.20 (http://welcome.to/logger) by Ulf/SM0LCB
