IARU R1 UHF SHF Contest October 2024

The DK0NA team attended the IARU R1 UHF SHF Contest in October 2024. The weather forecast for the weekend wasn’t that good but the set up of the antennas was easy and fast due to the fact that we had a lot of helping hands. Our technical equipment caused no problems and everything worked fine. The condx were not better than normal but we could achieve a new local QSO record on the 70cm band at our station site. The claimed scores (see photo, 122, 134, 241 GHz and Laser is missing on the picture) are quite ok.

We are also happy to welcome a new guest operator, DK2RO, Robert. Tnx to everybody we had QSO with and all the helpers around our team!

July Contest 2024 @ DK0NA

With good weather conditions and a small team we took part in the VHF/UHF/SHF contest at the first weekend in July 2024. Fortunately the set up of our new antenna for 432 MHz worked very well. DB6NT and DK5NJ bulit the antennas themselves according to DG7YBN antenna design with DG7YBN dipoles. Thanks for all the helping hands and the QSOs during the contest!
