Great conditions on all bands this weekend. Lots of VK6 :-)
Glad I got the 80m loop up as it heard so much more than my DX
vertical did. 40m 4 square proved itself again.
Thanks for all the contacts. Everyone vy friendly - great fun. |

The RD really is the friendly contest, the introduction of the

thank you for your service, Veterans past and present and serving. |
VK3AUQ |
SINGLE-OP MIXED HIGH |
Fun contest. Not much VHF activity, most of my VHF contacts were on 23cm.
HF was CW only until the dying minutes when I had a series of contacts with VK3MH.
We were attempting to fill in all possible bands activated and I had one 10 mtr ssb QSO.
Running 100W to an 80 Mtr inverted vee with tuner for 160 - 10 Mtr.
Homebrew iambic keyer from about 40 plus years ago.
VK3GF on 40 Mtr @ 0755 may have been using a serial number instead of years licenced.

Good fun thanks. Had some finger trouble with electronic log and lost 2 7MHz SSB SOAPBOX: contacts that occurred between 1:57 and 2:32 on Sunday. One was VK7ZBX but I don't SOAPBOX: remember other callsign. Serves me right for depending on software and pc.

For fun, decided to work using 500 milliwatt power, using KX3 with attenuator, microHAM RF power meter, and EFHW antenna @ 22 m.
Many thanks to all for your patience in copying my weak signal. Will be looking forward to next year's contest. |

Great afternoon/evening supporting 7 Cub Scouts from 1st Sandringham
Scout Group do all of the work to setup the antenna & station in the
park by our Scout hall before they searched for the CQ calls, made
the QSO and logged the callsign/exchange - sorry for anyone we
missed or got wrong, they were so excited - even when the laptop
with VKCL had a fit and lost the radio.

80m was all tx qrp (3 watts) to a G5RV ant ... 40m was mainly 100w
(with EFHW ant) but included some 4 watt qrp. An enjoyable contest.
Thanks and 73

Great Contest as usual - stuck with 2 antennas - 40 & 80m.. others
out of action due to cockatoos.
Slow going at times - but that is normal in contests. Some very
tired operators on Sunday mornng early.. lots of New Hams also.

VK3JNI |
SINGLE-OP SSB HIGH |
Enjoyed the contest but a few observations:
1. the new 4x callsigns result in more QRZ requests.
2. having a contest to say your callsign the fastest does not help
when conditions are poor.
3 Please bring back the VHF/UHF segment of the contest. This would
help new operators with limited equipment and antennas

|
VK2MT |
SINGLE-OP SSB HIGH |
Operated in the bush near Wiseman's Ferry with a multiband dipole up
a gumtree.
Apart from a little OTHR on 80m, the bands were realtively
noise-free, although some conditions on 40m were unusual with
signals taking massive QSB dives and paths working best only
one-way.
A lot of fun was had although sleep deprivation can be challenging.
Thanks everyone!

Decided to only operate QRP this year. Used 5 watts max. into a
homwbrew vertical antenna.
I think it was more of a challenge using 5 watts.
I really enjoyed the contest.
Thank you organsiers.

I operated a portable station from Ponto Falls between Dubbo and
Wellington in VK2. 100w into a doublet antenna about 13m in the air.
Rain off and on all weekend, incl 40 mins off air for a
thunderstorm. We had to watch and shoo away the very friendly and
tame young cows grazing in the camp area, and because of them we
could not put up a vertical antenna.
