Comments:
We had a great experience this year once again from Mali. Only 1 major glitch
occurred. We discovered upon getting our equipment out of storage that a
significant amount of coax and rotor cable had been "lost". This included all
our coaxial stub filters. John, G4IRN, had not left the UK so he was able to
acquire 300 meters of RG8X to bring with him and we acquired some 3 conductor
cable in Bamako which we doubled up to make the 6 conductor runs needed.
All the equipment, amps etc worked just fine. The K2/100's and Alpha amps
(76's and 78's) were used for each station. Our mults totals were the best
ever and for the first time we recorded 5 band DXCC mainly because we put up a
dipole along with the vertical on 80m and it made a huge difference.
It was great to have some good 10m activity. We felt we squeezed as much
productivity out of our field day style setup as possible. Fantastic job by
the HC8N and 5A7A groups too. Good competition and good fun.
The Voodudes plan to move to another West African nation in 2007. Plans are
already underway but it is too early to make any announcements.
Thanks for all the QSO's.
73,
TZ5A
