Tropo Opening December 2007 at SM7LCB
Last updated 5 January 2008.During the 19th and 20th December 2007 there were a very nice opening on 23cm and 3cm. Even the days after the 20th December the opening continue but the power supply to a router at my remote QTH broke down so I couldn't be active until end of the opening. Maybe good because then I have time to prepare the Christmas holiday otherwise maybe the family...
NAC 23cm activity contest
The 18th of December the NAC activity contest on 23cm have a visit of the nice conds. At my QTH the conds were not to good but I got some very nice QSO during the contest and got a very good score, thanks! Very few SM and OZ stations in log this evening but the OZ and all SM6/7 stations were very busy with much better conds!
