The Meeting takes place every two years at end of march.Tropo opening began on saturday evening with a nice duct from southwest to northeast. Stations from G and OZ/SM worked. On sunday morning we became contest feeling: many stations from western and central europe were logged. The conditions on 70cm were also very nice at the same time, ODX G0JLO, IO81WM, 733km. 73 Chris DK2CRN |

Nowhere near the scale and intensity of the opening between the 13th and 15th but nice anyway to have 2 openings in one month. No QSOs over 1000km, best was to DK2ZF/p at 912km. When I worked DK2ZF/p, Rolf was beaming into and working SP3 but he was still 59 off the back of his antenna, Later when he beamed this way he was 59+40db. As I send this report at 12:27gmt, its all gone. Very dissapointed not to be able to work DA0HEL in jo34we for a new one. Best from them was 319 on CW and no qso was possible - although PA4PS in J033 was 59. Hopefully I will work that locator another day.73 Lyn GW8JLY |
