Spring Contest

Our spring contest was a disaster. Our 144 MHz broke durig the contest and the 432 PA never worked. Our only achievement on those bands was the new 144 MHz LNA wich is working as expected.

On 1296 MHz we achieved 37 QSO with and ODX à 669 Km. On 10 GHz, only 6 QSO’s

We hope to solve all issues for the next month contest.

Spring Contest 2009 Results

The french contest comity published the results of the 2009 spring contest and the results are excellent for our team:

In the multi-op classification we ended

• 3rd on 144 MHz with 135 487 points
• 1st on 432 MHz with 17 426 points
• 3rd on 1296 MHz with 3 759 points and the emergency station.
• 1st on 2,3 GHz with 1 080 points
• 1st on 5,7 GHz with 2 181 points
• 1st on 10 GHz with 3 085 points
• 1st on 24 GHz with 162 points .

Those results realy meet our expections especially on the microwave bands (thanks a lot to Philippe F6DPH for taking all his equipment from 13cm to 1,5cm !!!).  Too bad we didn’t have the full 1296 MHz equipment as we achieved twice as much QSO from the same QTH one month later.

See your next year !
