ARRL EME 432    2023

​

In the first contest weekend on Saturday was the polarisation for EU-EU Horizontal to Vertical which made it difficult, luckily I have mounted my old 4x21el Tonna for V-pol.  I was active for 3 hours at Saturday evening, 3 hours on Sunday morning and 5 hours on Sunday evening and I managed to work 44 stations.

In the second contest weekend I started on Saturday and with strong Aurora once again polarization shifted H-V. I was QRV on Saturday from moon rise to 01:30 about 11 hours and on Sunday from moon rise to 23:00 about 9 hours and worked 32 stations. With a total of 76 X 43 and Raw Score 326,800 I am very satisfied and was also glad to work stations with  single Yagi.
