Comments:

Horrible propagations, we had about half of last years score. Barely any DX runs
except a bit on Sunday but nothing even close to spectacular. This one is a
contest we will decide to totally forget.

We had LB3HC as guest operator and he did a lot of operating and was a nice
addition to the team.

Our concept of working QSOs S&P on the running band need to be improved. We
had IMD issues with the preamp for the vertical located 500m away. So we had to
put attenuation before it and could only copy the very strongest signals. So I
will pull out 7/8" coax and start thinking about having a better antenna
system there too. Only about 400Q was worked "inband" because of
this.

Thanks for the QSOs!
