January 13, 2007

Jan 12-13 I travelled to country QTH and checked condition of 80 m antenna and electricity supply. Unfortunately I have no time to make BV for receive so I operated without any RX antenna. Even band conditions were not bad I was not able to hear well. Noise floor never droped below S5 so I had real problem especialy during NA pile up. I did my best but surely I could have work much more stations. My next trip on the site to make some preparations planned WED Jan 17. This trip I plan:

  1. Check electricity related issues and generator
  2. Install NA Short Pass BV on new place and check if it works OK.
  3. Try 160 feeding for vertical described in N4KG article. 
  4. Operate 160 and 80 m for one night.
