My first contest
|
VK2IO |
SINGLE-OP MIXED QRP |
Operated portable at Gir-um-bit State Conservation Area VKFF-1318 (QF57XG).
Rig was a KX3. Antenna for 40m was a ZS6BKW 9m high.
Antenna for 160m/80m was a double-sized ZS6BKW 9m high.
40m seemed poor however 80m and 160m were good until a radar started on 80m.
QRN was low and participation high. Enjoyed the contest this year! |

SINGLE-OP MIXED HIGH |
I really enjoyed the TT Contest last night. Great to work a few
more ZL's this time around!
SOAPBOX The surface radar QRM on 80 metres was ameliorated at my QTH by using a Magnetic Loop on RX and an
Inverted L on TX. Luckily for me, the radar was coming in from
the NW and most competitors were East or West. This provided
some good nulling of the interferer. Great to see 160 metres in
full flight.. Looking forward to next year! |
VK4SN |
CHECKLOG MIXED HIGH |
Most enjoyable contest I've had for a while.
Worked over 100 in an hour at one stage.
The wood pecker created havoc on 80m most of the evening
making some stations unworkable. 160m had good participation
as the band improved during the night.
Thanks to all who participated. |
VK6FLAB |
SINGLE-OP DIGI QRP |
First ever digital PSK contest QSO, didn't hear anything else
on the bands. Bit dissapointing to see so few digital signals.
Not sure if the contest rules can be tweaked. 2200 in VK6
is 0000 in VK2/3/4 and 0200 in ZL. VK6 has poor propagation
at the beginning of the contest (before sunset) and not many
people to talk to at the end of the contest.
Used FLDIGI on a vertical with my FT-857d from my QTH for the
first time. |

SINGLE-OP MIXED HIGH |
Enjoyed the Contest.... )
I was still soldering and downloading software 5 minutes before the start.
80m was a bit rough with RADAR QRM unless you were in the sweet spot around 3.63
I really enjoyed myself and worked a few ZLs on 160m

SINGLE-OP MIXED LOW |
Very good conditions on 160m and 80m although 80m was very noisy
towards the end. Great concept with 3 x 2hr blocks keeps the bands
busy. Thanks Alan for running the contest.

Really enjoyable contest and the winter time means the low bands are superb
We ran an old version of software that made the multipliers worth much more
Certainly got us excited in the last two hours

VK2MT |
SINGLE-OP MIXED LOW |
Location - Operated portable from a caravan near Wisemans Ferry (NW of Sydney).
Rig - Icom IC-7100 Antenna - Dipole suspended 60' up a helpful Gumtree.
40m - Good but only a few stations amongst the many O/S sigs.
80m - Excellent until the S7+ radar pulse QRM hit us all.
(And no Alan it wasn't just local to you!)
160m - Got better/less noisy along with more stations as they "escaped" the 80m QRM.
Overall a very enjoyable Contest. Thanks everyone! |
VK2WQ |
SINGLE-OP CW LOW |
Running IC 7300 at 100w to a North - South 41m end fed wire via 491 balun
Conditions within VK and to ZL seemed reasonable. Hope for more CW stations
next time.
