Decided to go with one radio only as antennas were so close which really takes away from the usual stress! I seemed ahead of most EU single op's after night #1 but continously gave away with onsetting equipment failures. Especially the off-time during the substantial westcoast opening on Sunday morning hurt me. Anyway, fun conditions and just 40min of sleep were pretty good CQ WW training. Thanks a lot to my dad Ralph DJ1DB for helping out fixing the equipment! 73, Stefan DL1IAO@contesting.com http://www.dl1iao.com
