vk9gmw qrv with temporary setup (03-29-2009 from aa7jv)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
mar 29, 0000 utc, mellish reef. we spent all of saturday setting up the station. unfortunately,
our brand new tent was lacking some vital parts (poor quality control in china, i guess) and we've spent a lot of time rigging up a shelter from tarps and drift-wood. (the tarps generate a lot of noise flapping in the 50 km/h breeze! mechanical qrn.) we ran out of time to get the complete antenna up and were unable to operate on 160. spent the night on 80 meters, although the partial antenna was not ideal for that band either. conditions were variable: during the early part of the evening na was strong but signals dropped after 1300 utc. conditions to eu were mediocre, with mostly eastern and northern europe dominating (especially oh). we will complete the antenna (and lots of other chores) today and hope to be on 160 tonight.
they have made it! team on mellish (03-27-2009 from aa7jv)
