My Field Day excuses !!! - VE3PQ Paul - 2020-06-28
Well, It was fun, but somewhat fewer Q,s than I had hoped for... Spent a lot of time looking for new section/mults rather than
max Q's... 80M 33 CW, 4 digi 37
40M 25 CW, 16 digi 41 ( 51 sections, 37 states, 4 countries.. )
20M 52 CW, 6 digi 58
15M 7 CW, 7
Total HF 143
Satellite (SSB) 2
-----------
145.......
Had a bug in the system when I fired up this morning !! It appeared at first I had a major SWR problem with the 40M antenna..
Wasted nearly an hour inspecting and testing,, eventually finding an earwig jamming the meter movement inside the SWR bridge...
Now , on to the log filing...........................................................
