Wow, nice to see that they are still using the reliable russian R-250 receiver. And if they are using them in contests with proper results, maybe i should think about putting the one i have into use.
Thanks for the good article Henryk. 73 DJ9AO

The R250 means Receiver that weighs 250 lbs. I guess.

Haha, quite a good guess. You can see them on the picture where OM Algis shows the 20m position. The bulky heavy looking things next to the headphones are the R-250 and their weight actually is about 100 kg (so says the manual). So you nearly figured it out but one can do it fully only after trying to move this receiver.

R-250 receivers are used in 40m position of LY7A. Weigth of receivers is not important because it is STATIONARY position :)
Any way, radiosport is "not easy thing".

Well, if you like to see the 250 lbs RECEIVERS (not transceivers) too - go to LY7A as Henryk did. Right place.

But....

If you like to see some quite & remote site, populated with monster ANTENNAS (mounted on a six 35-57 meter tall towers) then LY2ZZ QTH is the place.

Just to see those 57m high, FREE STANDING "sky needles" is verse the trip :))

73, Vic LY2BIG
