July Contest 2007

DR 2 X
in JO4Øql on 144.355 MHz

Again a wonderful time for contesting on our hill: sunshine and  25 degree, but the days before and after the weekend were horrible. Expecting Sporadic E in July? We were lucky and had not chaos during the contest, but some nice tropo. The first time ever during a contest from this site we worked IO80, and it was our ODX. Also nice Hungary in KN08. Even if the conditions were not as good as in May we worked quite some SP, even we had again a phase noise problems with a station on the Wasserkuppe 40km away. During the night we had the chance to work OK stations we missed on Saturday afternoon. Also the French stations in the south west area JN15, JN16, JN25 were very loud and active, we could work many of them!
On Sunday there was to much trouble in the TV: We had the Wimbledon, Formula One and the Big Rockmusic Event over the world, that is the reason why QSO-rates dropped after 11UTC. But everyone had to deal with it. We ended up with 882 QSOs.

Hope to hear you in September again!
