Wow !

That was fun ...

I had originally planned other activities for the week-end, and had a less than

functional 40 m Yagi hanging @ 20 m, but had a "familiar opening", so in the

last minute I was able to turn the radio on to a wide open 10 m band - and

there seemed to be no end to the amount of North American stations pouring

in...

I could have continued on 10 all day and evening, but also had to get a few

multipiers on the other bands, so I just kept on running and running - until I

got down to 40 m around midnight - then things slowed down significantly - and

I also had to get a couple of hours of sleep and got up and worked a bit on a

very quiet 80 m band...until the higher bands woke up a little later than

usual, it seemed...

All the while I was following OZ7X ( OZ5KF, Kristian ) who was going at pretty

high rates as well and we were both fairly busy - but when we came down to 40

m,  I had to let him run away with the use of his QuadÂ's  ...hi hi...

Congratulations on an excellent result, Kristian - Very well done !

Sunday was not half as busy - I think I made 10 QÂ's on 10 m - so I went down

and worked Europeans on 40 m on a dipole, but I have a feeling that I should

have searched around for some more multipliers on the other bands instead...

All in all a lot of fun and Radio Action in the Shack, while OZ1LCG & OZ1XJ

were working on an extra position for the new 15 m Optibeam outside.

Nice to see OZ up among the other Northern brethren in the higher end of SAC

for once

:-) Take that Finland :-)
