Last weekend we participated in the IARU HF championship and we where
active for the full 24 hours. We used my own call pa1ton
.
Being a very small gun (1 transmitter, two antennas and only 100 watts) we decided that we could have a lot of fun not racing for the points, but trying to work stations we never worked before.
In the end we had 384 QSO’s, which isn’t that much. But we had a QSO
with China b7hq
(which was pronounced as blavo seven hotel queen
),
Bangladesh, Vietnam, the IARU-R1 and IARU-R1 headquarters and a couple
of vk
and zl
.
All in all a very successful weekend.
We will be back next year.
