HS0ZINSO LOW 10Mlow power Icom IC718 100w Force 12 C3 antenna
HZ1PSSO LOW ALLEnjoyed the contest very much. Had a bit more time to play in this one so set myself a couple of goals - 1000 QSOs and 1m points. I achieved both. Anyone who says amateur radio is dead should have been listening to the contest - signals all up and down the bands with good conditions as well. Thank you to CQ for sponsoring and to all for the QSOs
I/DM1CMSO HIGH ALLA good contest! - my main objective this year was to beat my own record set last year, and I eventually did that with ease, although towards the end I doubted I would manage it. Conditions were mostly good to excellent, with the 10-meter band in especially good form. Nonetheless, with only a single vertical antenna (no 80M or 160M) it was difficult to hear the other station through the QRM. My contest callsign I/DM1CM didn't help either - it's most often difficult for the other station to recognize the "Italy portable" in the callsign, so a lot of time is lost there. Still, this was the first time I've beaten the thousand-QSO score, so I was doubly pleased. Equipment- FT-2000, ACOM 1011 amp, SteppIR III vertical, Heil ProMicro Mic
I0UZFSA QRP 10MQRP Category - I declare that the maximum power output used was 5 W
I1WKNSO LOW 40MI operated only on 40 m , only for few hours. I never call, only answer . TX yaesu FT 857 ( 100 W max , really 50 W peak on SSB ) antenna Home-made inverted V dipole with balun 1:1 . Too many overpowered stations don't let place to listen the other week or far stations . if you admit 3 class of power output , It should better define in each band 3 different zone for calling for the 3 class. for example from 7050 to 7070 qrp , from 7070 to 7120 til 100 watts and from 7120 to 7200 over 100 watts . 73 i1wkn
