Checklogs gratefully received from G3NYY/P, G6GVI & G6NHU |
Comments from the logs:
G0BWC/P
Not many stations on. All band covered from 432MHz to 24GHz G0DJA
Wet and windy 10GHz: Rain scatter helped make the contact G0JJG
432MHz: Dodgy weather and similar conditions. 1.3GHz: Most contacts during Trophy contest, very few and far between on Sunday G0XDI
432MHz: Conditions Awful but some DX worked 1.3GHz: Conditions Awfull G1ONE/P
3 hours on Saturday G3CKR/P
Very very wet one of the strongest winds. Started 11.30pm bent the steel pole on 13cms, dish only 3m off the ground so we stop took it all down qrt. Got very wet for 3 hours then the sun came out!! Very few g stations. Should have not stop Sunday. G3NYY/P
Fairly flat, but the propagation was there. I made just 15 QSOs and this included 7 countries! Support for this contest in the UK was extremely poor. G3XDY
432MHz: Activity seemed low, but some reasonable DX to be had 1.3GHz: First full 24hr contest with new SSPA - worked flawlessly Conditions slightly above normal - OK2A worked on tropo not AS 2.3GHz: Nice Aircraft Reflection QSO for best DX. Conditions about average. 3.4GHz: Activity rather limited, conditions average System seemed slightly down on normal performance 5.7GHz: Average tropo, some RS available which helped Low activity, particularly in the UK 10GHz: Tropo normal, some reasonable RS on mid distance contacts. G3YJR
432MHz: I only heard two stations! 1.3GHz: Conditions nothing wonderful but nice to get a couple of Dutch contacts. G4LDR
Very poor (heavy rain at times) G5B
432MHz: Station used to lift contacts to 23 & 13cms during trophy event - Sporadic operation only - no serious attempt at 70cms. 1.3GHz: Some good to average conditions around which died off as the rain front moved through returning again once the front had moved through. Some UK stations got away - some fairly local - Skeds generally worked well. KST a boon at these frequencies. 2.3GHz: Conditions as 23cms - new system seemed to work well. KST & Sked making was again essential on this band. G6GVI
Giving away points to anyone I could hear. G6NHU
Checklog only, worked all I could hear! Must get a beam sorted out :-) G8CUL
Just giving a few points away... G8DOH
Rain, Fog, wind and very few UK stations heard. Slightly better condx. in last few hours. GW8NEY/P
Faulty preamp sequencer with eventual demise of the preamp! Very poor conditions and activity low. QRV to support 23cm trophy only. M1CRO/P
432MHz: Monsoon WX & high winds made for a physical challenge. Nearly 3hrs late but the gear behaved & we worked what we could hear. 1.3GHz: Condx variable. Several got-aways. Few appeared to be tuning the band. 2.3GHz: Bit of a BDQ lash-up. Saturday's flooded dish-feed dried up some by Sunday. 5.7GHz: Worked quite well when we could find QSO partners. 10GHz: Hard work sometimes to maintain skeds. Some rain-scatter on Sunday AM. 24GH
