| Bo commented : The 2011 JT6M Challenge opened a new door on 6 meters for me. Due to frustration over the poor 6m propagation I decided to try it. During the Quadrantids my antenna (the single yagi) was pointing east all the time because of rotator problems and the big array too (storm secured). I soon discovered that my friend Henrik, OZ8ZS, just across the small waters separating OZ and SM was a keen and dedicated player, so the competitive part of me decided to give him a fight. Very soon both Henrik and myself were blamed for hunting everybody entering the KST cluster, which we did, but those who “never did so – just worked on random” soon forgot their own words and followed ;o) |

It was fun to se how reliable the mode was, when both stations knew the procedure and how many rookies we introduced JT6M to. Having several, up to 1 hour, skeds with EA1YV (IN52) before we finally made it was great fun. This is so far my best distance worked on pure MS.The sad thing is the limited number of station on this mode and the chaos on 50.230 during weekends and showers.
Thanks to everybody for a great challenge and a special thanks to Henrik teasing me to spend many hours on a “dead”, but still magic, 6m band. |
