Well this was my second attempt at participating in this contest and I must confess that I am not a fan. Made only 2 local contacts in about 2 hours on 2M. While I was not expecting a pile up I did expect more activity. I was using a 10el Yagi on 2m and a dipole on 6m. Even with the Yagi I could not hear anything beyond a couple of local stations. Perhaps more patience is needed. Perhaps I need to try tagging along with more experienced operators. I’ll see what happens next contest. I made a short video (as seems the be the case every time I do something these days !)

Thanks Col. Yeah, perhaps next time 🙂
Great video again Stu. The high view of the operating spot on this occasion and the commentary driving home was A great idea. Sorry couldn’t make it on t his occasion but xyl had her eye on a new fridge! Hopefully the next contest will be a bit more active. 73s. NIg.
