EA3CBH/6 in the V-U-SHF contest of August-2004

This time EA3CBH/6, EA6SA and myself (EA6VQ) joined efforts to put a decent station on the air during the 24h of the contest and from a portable QTH with a good takeoff towards France and Italy as we could expect good tropoducting propagation over the sea at this time of the year. During the contest propagation conditions were quite good in almost all directions (see results at the bottom) and we had a lot of fun operating.

Rig used was a TS-790 plus 600w on 2m, 115w on 70cm and 150w on 23cm and MGF-1302 preamps. The antennas were M2 12 elem. (3,5 wl) for 2m, 28 elem. (10wl) on 432 MHz, and Tonna 55 elem. for 23cm.

Score on 144 MHz
187 QSO / 51 locators
104,724 Km * 51 multipliers = 5,340,924 points.

Score on 432 MHz
64 QSO / 25 locators
29,864 Km * 25 multipliers = 746,600 points.

Score on 1296 MHz
23 QSO / 11 locators
9,295 Km * 11 multipliers = 102,245 points.

Best QSO on 144 MHz
