HA3DXSO LP ALLRig: YAESU FT2000 Antennas : 5 el monobander Long John Yagis for 28-21-14MHz and 4 el/3 band Trival Quad for 20/15/10 mtrs. Lazy-H antennas for 7 MHZ (NW-SE/SW-NE) Single Quads for 3,5MHz (SW-NE)/NW/SE/ + NVIS for 3,5 MHz (N/S) Delta loops for 1.8-Mhz (NW-SE/SW-NE) / K9AY 160m is not for WPX contest but for some 5 band QSO's. 80m NVIS worked very well for EU and Delta loops for DX. Crowded band. 40m Nice surprise sunday evening many nice DX worked. YB's were very strong but NP4A was the strongest one. 20m The best short LP opening for VK/ZL for many years on Saturday morning. Crowded band I could only find place at the top band end. But continuous QRM there too. Sooner or later someone stronger always occupied my frequency. Missig the usual queue of DL and PA stations. 15m Both day was very poor,No USA, no JA almost only S&P. 10m No signal heard. Thanks for nice contest! Best regards from Hungary! Charlie HA4XH
