I have PAs in good condition, but I decided to run LP due to high temperature problem, hi.
Outdoor temperature was between +20°C during the night and +35°C during the day. When I imagined temperature increasing inside hamshack created by 2 PAs during the contest, I gave up running as High Power : ) So not Mixed Mode HP, but CW LP only.
Conditions were quite fine, 10m opened for few mults, 15m usable even for running Low Power CQ. 20m and 40m as main bands.
Result is very similar to last year, so I hope to increasing conditions from month to month : )
Thanks to all, who take part!
