YS1G - no QSO and 2 days to go.
May 20th, 2009
Michael (G7VJR) and Bob (MD0CCE) are doing their bit keeping YS1G on the air day & night but still conditions aren’t quite good enough to allow me to hear them consistently.
Tonight on 20m they were fading badly and only very occasionally coming up to max strength 5 or 6. Add to that the fact my wire sloper antenna is proving to be difficult to tune on 20m meaning I can only run up to 35w output before RF in the shack wreaks havoc and it’s been a frustrating night.
I’m tired and off to bed. I may try again tomorrow or Friday night but it’s not looking very promising.
